Majorana 2: AI-Driven Leap to 1,000x More Reliable Quantum Qubits

TL;DR Summary
Microsoft unveils Majorana 2, a topological quantum chip with a new materials stack delivering ~1,000× longer qubit lifetimes (mean ~20 seconds, up to a minute), advancing toward a scalable quantum computer by 2029. Enabled by agentic AI in Microsoft Discovery, which automates measurements, optimizes fabrication, and synthesizes large data across global teams; a Microsoft Discovery app for local use with Copilot is now generally available.
