Abstract

Research and engineering in the quantum domain involve long chains of activity involving theory development, hypothesis formation, experimentation, device prototyping, device testing, and many more. At each stage multiple paths become possible, and of the paths pursued, the majority will lead nowhere. Our quantum metascience approach provides a strategy which enables all stakeholders to gain an overview of those developments along these tracks, that are relevant to their specific concerns. It provides a controlled vocabulary, built out of terms that are designed to be maximally comprehensible to all groups of stakeholders and across all the sub-fields of the quantum domain. In this paper we 1) introduce our Quantum Science Organization (QSO), a not-for-profit group of quantum science and engineer volunteers and stakeholders and 2) list our QSO Charter, 3) overview our Quantum Ontology project and metascience, 4) consider approaches, including AI machine learning and the wildly investigated ChatGPT from OpenAI, 4) explain why Quantum Ontology is necessary to bridging the communications gap and accelerating progress in quantum science and engineering, 5) contrast ChatGPT to ontology-based AI, demonstrating ChatGPT inadequacies for the tasks at hand, 6) review the history of Quantum Ontology, 7) provide examples of quantum physics knowledge and application areas, and 8) preview the beta version of QSO’s global secure infrastructure for developing and providing quantum knowledge as a service (QKaaS). Five recorded presentations by the QSO are accessible via the Video Index below.
