Modern artificial intelligence algorithms operate on simplified biological neuron models using adjustable numeric weights (matrices) multiplied by input vectors. State transitions are governed by classical probability distributions and statistics, executed via binary logic (0 and 1 bits) on standard semiconductor hardware.

Expert Consensus: Is AI Physics or Quantum Mechanics?

Drawing from theoretical physicists, computer scientists, and AI researchers:

1. Pure Computer Science & Bits

AI operates on Turing-complete classical computing systems. As computer science experts emphasize, models are composed of bits (0 and 1) organized into floating-point numbers. Electronics harness electron flow in silicon semiconductors, but the governing algorithmic rules are mathematical rather than physical.

2. Statistics & Linear Algebra

Large Language Models and deep neural nets are essentially high-dimensional statistical regressors. They calculate conditional probability distributions $P(w_t | w_{1...t-1})$. Weights amplify or suppress activations via matrix dot products, deriving from 1950s perceptron theory powered by modern GPUs.

3. The Role of Quantum ML

True Quantum Machine Learning (QML) algorithms, such as HHL solvers for linear systems, require coherent qubits. While promising theoretical exponential speedups for specialized matrix inversions, modern commercial AI does not utilize quantum mechanics in production models.
