A new scientific critique in Nature casts doubt on Microsoft's quantum computing claims, potentially impacting its 2029 target. While rivals pursue established methods, Microsoft's long-term bet on a novel technology faces renewed skepticism. The company maintains its research is progressing practically, despite past retractions and current concerns over identifying a crucial subatomic particle and a minute gap in conductive wires.

The company has been touting its quantum technology for years, but some experts say these claims just don’t pass muster

A physicist's formal critique argues Microsoft has not demonstrated the topological qubit behind its Majorana 2 quantum chip.

Microsoft's 2029 quantum supercomputer ambitions may have hit a roadblock, as critics claim the company's 2025 quantum breakthrough was a result of Python errors.

A peer-reviewed critique of Majorana 1 claims Microsoft did not conclusively demonstrate a working topological qubit. Microsoft disagrees.
