It’s not possible to discuss “the amount of computations required” without specifying a model of computation.
I agree, there are more steps in between “AI is hard” and “we need QC”.
However, from what I understand, those who say “QC is required for AI” just use this “argument” (e.g. “AI is at least as hard as code breaking”) as an excuse to avoid thinking about AI, not as a thoughtful conclusion from analyzing available data.
