Key Points
- Microsoft announced its first quantum computing chip, Majorana 1, on Wednesday.
- The chip currently uses eight “Qubits” or “qubits” and has the potential to scale to 1 million Quarbits, the company said.
- Microsoft says a Qubit’s quantum computer can be more powerful than every computer on Earth.
Microsoft(MSFT) announced the first one on Wednesday Quantum computing Chip, Majorana 1, and says it can greatly reduce the time required to reach quantum computing in a larger range.
The Majorana 1 chip contains eight “Qubits” or qubits, with the potential to scale to 1 million Quarbits, which the technology giant says will create more powerful computers than every existing binary computer in the world.
Competitors like Alphabet (GOOGL) Google and some other technology companies are also designing their own designs for quantum computing chips. However, some chip makers, such as Nvidia (NVDA) CEO Jensen Huang, has been warned before There are still several years of “very useful quantum computers”.
Google First appearanceknown in December as Willow, is the second of the company’s six stated milestones in its quantum computing roadmap.
Microsoft’s shares rose more than 1% to close at $414.77 on Wednesday. They have earned about 3% in the past 12 months.
