Cover Story: In 1926, Schrödinger published the function that governs the wave function of a quantum system. However, solving the Schrödinger equation is not a simple task. Obtaining the solution means finding the wave function, which allows predicting the physical and chemical properties of the quantum system. During the last decade, the application of algorithms and principles of quantum computation in disciplines other than physics and chemistry, such as biology and artificial intelligence, has led to the search for alternative techniques with which to obtain approximate solutions of the Schrödinger equation. We review and illustrate the application of genetic algorithms, i.e., procedures inspired by Darwinian evolution, in elementary quantum systems and in quantum models of artificial intelligence.
