Last year, Microsoft announced its Majorana quantum computing chip, which supposedly used topological qubits to make calculations. The problem was that the paper published alongside the announcement didn’t show any evidence for those claims. Now they’ve announced a new quantum chip. Is it any better this time?. Let’s take a look.
Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2606.03884
