France’s Quobly raises €115M to put a quantum computer on a silicon chip

Most quantum-computing startups ask the world to build them an entirely new industry: exotic materials, bespoke fabrication, supply chains that do not yet exist. Quobly is making a quieter bet. The Grenoble company thinks the path to a useful quantum m…

Microsoft used agentic AI to make its quantum chip 1,000 times more reliable, then cut its timeline to a scalable quantum computer in half
Microsoft used agentic AI to make its quantum chip 1,000 times more reliable, then cut its timeline to a scalable quantum computer in half

Microsoft has unveiled Majorana 2, a next-generation topological quantum chip whose qubits are 1,000 times more reliable than those in the first Majorana chip introduced last year. The improvement is so significant that Microsoft has cut its timeline f…
