Right now, if you want to train an AI agent that has a high accuracy in identifying street objects, for instance, you will need to throw millions and millions of images of such objects at it. However, with quantum computers, you should be able to use much smaller data sets to reach the same level of accuracy.

Is this accurate? I thought the benefit of quantum computer for deep learning was to arrive at an optimal solution in a single run, rather than taking many iterations to converge on a sub-optimal "good" solution.

Or, perhaps you're thinking that the optimal solution will require fewer nodes for a given accuracy requirement, meaning less training data will be required to mitigate against over-fitting?
