Last year I wrote about Majorana, a quantum computing chip created by Microsoft. Back then the company claimed that they had discovered/invented a new state of matter, the topological superconductor, which exists at near-zero temperatures and allows their chips to work more reliably than other quantum computer designs.

Microsoft released a video last week claiming they have created a new state of matter, a base building block for their efforts to make a new type of quantum computer using “topological superconductors”:
