Global Supervision and Cooperation
The disruptive potential of quantum computing is too vast and too potent to leave unchecked. Policymakers and technologists need to come to agreement quickly on global standards for transparency, ethics and testable error accountability. Seventy percent of CIOs will want to see “dedicated guardian offer agents” to be created by 2028 to oversee quantum activities responsibly.
Diversity in Education and Workforce Preparation
India’s achievements in using quantum technologies is a testament to the benefits of widespread, accessible training. Investment in education may be able to ready underrepresented communities for such jobs in quantum-oriented industries, thus mitigating the risk of workers in underrepresented communities being displaced by automation.

It’s a question every actor in the sector has to ask themselves now. The doors to the AI revolution are open — but will it slam in the face of the very people it’s supposed to protect?
