Quantum Frontiers: Majorana 1 and the Million-Qubit Quest
About this episode
A deep dive into quantum computing—from the basics to the buzz around Microsoft's Majorana 1. We unpack topological qubits, why Majorana particles could offer stability, the race to a million qubits on a single chip, and the key hurdles ahead, including error correction and the emergence of quantum software engineering.
