The Microsoft has announced the arrival of Majorana 1, a new quantum chip that produces more reliable and scalable qubits than its predecessors.
Qubits are the building blocks of quantum computers.
The Majorana 1 is an eight-qubit chip, which may seem modest when compared to quantum chips developed by rivals such as Google’s Willow (106-qubit chip) and IBM’s R2 Heron (156-qubit chip).
