Quantum computing could be a $200 billion market by 2040. These AI leaders will likely play a significant role in it.

There are similarities and differences between what the company is talking about today and IBM's recent update of its roadmap ...

Microsoft has been on this path, now marked with a quantum roadmap, for years. Back in 2017, the Windows giant talked up topological qubits at its Ignite Conference.

Microsoft says it has developed a breakthrough quantum processor based on a new state of matter, giving it a clear path to achieve quantum computing’s long-term promise of solving some of the ...

But the Azure Quantum team determined early on that tackling these urgent, real-world problems will require quantum computers that employ a million qubits or more. To date, public demonstrations of ...

If Microsoft’s claims pan out, the company may have leapfrogged competitors such as IBM and Google, who currently appear to be leading the race to build a quantum computer.

Microsoft today announced its roadmap for building its own quantum supercomputer, using the topological qubits the company’s researchers have been working on for quite a few years now.There are ...

This, the two companies say, has now moved the state-of-the-art of quantum computing out of what has typically been dubbed the era of noisy intermediate scale quantum (NISQ) computers.

Microsoft’s commitment to quantum is evidenced by its existing products and its long-range plans. In 2019, Microsoft released Azure Quantum as a cloud-based platform equipped with trapped-ion ...

In 2018, in Barron's magazine, Microsoft's quantum team told the paper that the company would have a topological qubit ready by the end of that year. In a sense, the Majorana 1 is seven years late.

Microsoft is announcing a new Majorana 1 processor that’s part of a quantum computing breakthrough. Researchers have spent 17 years to reach this milestone.

Microsoft is focusing on the development of quantum computers that take advantage of cryogenically cooled nanowires. (Microsoft Photo) REDMOND, Wash. — Quantum computing may still be in its ...
