Microsoft Achieves Quantum Computing Milestone
In a groundbreaking development, Microsoft has announced a major leap forward in quantum computing with the creation of the first-ever "topological qubits." These qubits, part of the Majorana 1 processor, store information in an exotic state of matter, offering unprecedented stability and scalability. This innovation, detailed in a recent paper published in Nature, could accelerate the timeline for practical quantum computing from decades to just a few years.
