Why Is Microsoft Betting Big on Quantum Computing?
- Microsoft recently announced a partnership with Atom Computing to drive the commercial adoption of quantum technology at the recent Microsoft Ignite 2024 event.
- The duo plans to launch a commercial quantum computer by 2025, which would unlock advancements in areas like chemistry and materials science.
- Microsoft chief Satya Nadella explains that as they make progress on our journey to large-scale quantum computing, they have achieved the most performant logical qubits on record.
- The partnership provides high-performance computing to successfully process the logical qubits, or quantum bits, marking a milestone in the journey to achieve fault-tolerant quantum computing.
- Microsoft is pioneering the development of topological qubits, which are theorised to be more stable and less error-prone than traditional qubits.
- Moreover, by using Azure Quantum, various quantum technologies have been integrated into their cloud-based platform, Azure.
- The race is intense with big tech companies like Google, IBM, and Amazon heading to lead the quantum space.
- The long-term game of quantum computing allows Microsoft to invest in research, partnerships, and quantum education, placing the company as heavy in this field.
- The company's strategy in quantum computing aligns with its broader mission to improving organisations with advanced technology.
- Microsoft aims to secure its position in this highly competitive field by pledging dedication towards quantum technology.
