People say quantum computing is a grift?

The other two are are only "grifts" because capitalism has shoved them into things that have no business involving them and breeds opportunistic get rich quick mindsets around the technologies. So any time you hear them mentioned it's more than likely to be a grift. They are fine in certain niches and very stupid everywhere else, like every other technology.

    people will say QC is a grift when it eventually becomes commercially viable(Just look at the second level comments here)

    Specifically, QC will be a grift when the media tells us all it is now, finally, commercially viable.

    Then it will remain a grift until it either dies off or reaches actual commercial vaibility.

    No, I didn't say anything about AI. Who brought up AI? I'm pretty sure I didn't. Really? Nah. Doesn't sound like AI. Oh...yeah, I guess. Maybe it does.
