Data Science
Data science is a term popularized with the development of artificial intelligence as a branch of computing science or computer science. The idea of dataism[1], also propelled the notion of claiming the direct study of data as a branch of science by itself.
Data Science and Quantum Computing
Data science as a scientific field can be related to the proposition that quantum computing can be treated as a scientific field. Quanta, being a unit of information, can be used to encode or represent data using varying physical phenomenon. The ability to utilize either the actual data content, or the algorithmic/physical implementations of algorithmic processing of data, must be bounded by the scientists' ability to merge or push the boundaries of either data science or quantum computing. One can think of data science as a branch of science that treats data as a noun-oriented abstraction, and quantum computing thinks of realizing computing activities using quantum physical processes being a verb-oriented abstraction.
