I made a Quantum Physicist Reacts video for Microsoft's Majorana 1 chip! 00:00 Intro 01:11 Topological quantum computing 03:19 Comparison with Google's Willow chip 04:57 Decoding the announcements 08:36 The paper & peer-review reports 11:50 Past skepticism & retractions 13:55 Potential impact on quantum computing 15:49 Conclusion & Recap

Also on YouTube:

Money is to be made in quantum computing, but carefully. Know-nothing pumpers have pushed quantum stocks into fantasy land. I am a nuclear physicist and market veteran. Do not become a bag holder — get the truth from a nuclear physicist.

Thanks for making this video. As a layman, I was surprised that there wasn't more of a reaction to Microsoft announcement because it seemed very impressive. I now get why we have to be cautious.

Thanks for the context! 🙏 Very valuable for us who do not know our quantum computing. Especially considering sensationalist nature of media

There is no doubt in my mind Microsoft created dark matter in this nanowire. A dark quantum condensate

Awesome!

I've been waiting for this. Listening now.

Thanks for sharing this, as a non technical member of the community this is very helpful!

Ooooh, that's awesome!! Gonna check it out later today! 😎

What is your reaction to Grok 3's conclusion that the Qubit is based on an ad-hoc assumption and not first principles?

Wow! Awesome! Great job. Will watch it more later today and keep up the great work Maria
