This talk looks at how the emerging quantum-AI (QAI) could change the way we think about the AI ethics and our responsibilities. Today’s AI systems are powerful but becoming opaque and uncontrollable. Adding quantum technology might make them more powerful, yet also harder to understand or control. I will explore some very QAI-specific ethical and explainability challenges and ask open questions. Particularly, what might happen if we supercharge AI when it already faces serious ethical challenges? If quantum systems are uncertain by nature and one can’t even see what happens between states, can we really expect more fairness, trust, or transparency? Or alternatively, in a future when the AI boom settles, can QAI helps rebuilding an ethical framework like never before?!
