Human behavior sometimes evades the rules of classical logic and probability. Since the 1990s, cognitive science researchers have developed alternative models based on quantum probability, which successfully capture non-commutative order-effects and other non-classical behaviors. This talk will describe the first implementations of these models as quantum circuits, run on physical quantum hardware. This brings new questions and opportunities in AI, as well as psychology and quantum computing.
