Loki:
Let's just say I disagree with you and leave it at that.

Morituri:

Okay, I see the "like" button.  Where's "dislike?" 

Come on, that's just disrespectful.

Method of Madness:
Look, as far as I'm concerned, canon is what's in the comic. I'm not going to throw out a really cool theory just because Jeph doesn't agree with it. I hope he doesn't see it as disrespectful.

Undrneath:
And just because Jeph has said something in the past doesn't mean he won't change his mind in the future. So technically canon is both what the author says and what is in the page even if the two don't always match.

Samik:
At first, I favored the idea that AG and QC took place in the same continuity, as well.  But, there's a timeline discrepancy, if you trust Alice's word/memory.


--- Quote ---Long ago, humanity split into two factions. One favored advancement of the species by enhancement through biological means. The other favored the development of artificial intelligence, to aid humanity and enhance it through its own methods. The AI faction pulled ahead - they created truly sentient artificial life and began integrating it into their society.[1]
--- End quote ---

In the QC-verse, we already have "truly sentient artificial life", which appears to be well on its way to being "integrated into society". But, according to Alice, this would have taken place after the faction split.  We've seen no evidence of such a split in the QC-verse, nor really a significant amount of (any?) biological enhancement in general.

I don't entirely trust Alice.  But, it seems she'd have to be just straight up 100% wrong about everything in that quote, for the two 'verses to be the same.
