An accessible introduction to quantum computing and its relationship to AI, with Yuyang Liu (experimental quantum optics and quantum information, UVic) and Steve Harris (AI4Enterprise).

Anu's Take
Quantum is probably going to be what overshadows AI in the buzzword and craze category. I can't get enough of it right now.
