Quantum computing promises to revolutionize industries from AI to drug discovery, but significant engineering challenges remain before we see practical applications.

American quantum computing startup PsiQuantum announced yesterday that it has cracked a significant puzzle on the road to making the technology useful: manufacturing quantum chips in useful quantities.

To appreciate what quantum computing is, one must consider the classical computing that we use every day in technologies like laptops and smart phones. Classical computing effectively manages bits — switches that are either on or off,

After several dashed predictions, quantum computing is accelerating rapidly with actual use cases and scientific breakthroughs expected within years, not decades.

While China advances photonic quantum computing, Microsoft has focused on a different approach. As Interesting Engineering reported earlier, the company announced that its Majorana 1 chip could store up to a million qubits using topological qubits, which are designed to be more stable and resistant to errors.

Following Google and Microsoft’s quantum computing announcements, the tech giant says its new chip will lead to more reliable quantum computers.
