Microsoft under fire for claiming it has a new quantum computer
Researchers have criticised Microsoft's new Majorana 1 quantum computer, saying the company has made claims about the way it works that aren't fully backed up by scientific evidence
Microsoft quantum breakthrough claims labeled 'unreliable' and 'essentially fraudulent'
Redmond’s quantum claims were made in February when it announced its in-house boffins had created "the world’s first topoconductor, a breakthrough type of material which can observe and control Majorana particles to produce more reliable and scalable qubits, which are the building blocks for quantum computers."
