• Title: Why we care (about quantum machine learning)
• Authors: Richard A. Wolf
• Abstract summary: I argue that focus on quantum machine learning stems from a wide range of factors, some of which lie outside the discipline itself. I give a brief overview of the core questions being raised in quantum machine learning and propose a socio-epistemologic interpretation of the motivations behind those and interplay between them.

• Abstract: Quantum machine learning has received tremendous amounts of attention in the last ten years, and this trend is on the rise. Despite its developments being currently limited to either theoretical statements and formal proofs or small-scale noisy experiments and classical simulations, this field of quantum technologies has been consistently standing in the spotlight. Moreover, the locus of attention seems to have been skewed towards three central questions: "Can we beat classical computers?", "How?" and "When?". In this work, I argue that focus on quantum machine learning stems from a wide range of factors, some of which lie outside the discipline itself. Based on both recent and key publications on the subject as well as general audience sources, I give a brief overview of the core questions being raised in quantum machine learning and propose a socio-epistemologic interpretation of the motivations behind those and interplay between them.

  We argue that it is difficult to say something about the practical power of quantum computers for machine learning with the tools we are currently using. We argue that these challenges call for a critical debate on whether quantum advantage and the narrative of 'beating' classical machine learning should continue to dominate the literature.
