Microsoft has announced new advances to Azure Quantum aimed at accelerating scientific discovery. This includes Azure Quantum Elements, which integrates high-performance computing, artificial intelligence, and quantum computing to reduce time and costs in R&D, increase the search space for new materials, and speed up chemistry simulations. Additionally, Copilot in Azure Quantum allows scientists to use natural language to reason through complex problems, and Microsoft shared their roadmap to a quantum supercomputer, including achieving a breakthrough in creating and controlling Majorana quasiparticles.
