Dr. Alan Baratz sits down with TheStreet to explain why Nvidia's CEO is "dead wrong" about quantum computing's future.

This is what's happening on Wednesday, as quantum computing investors cheer some kind words from Microsoft's strategic missions and technologies chief, Mitra Azizirad, who last night urged quantum investors to get ready, because "we are right on the cusp of seeing quantum computers solve meaningful problems and capture new business value."

First proposed in 1935 by the Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger, "Schrödinger's cat" was designed to highlight the physicist's concerns with one interpretation of quantum mechanics—the then relatively new theory that explains how matter behaves at the atomic (and smaller) scale.

MIT researchers have achieved a world-record single-qubit fidelity of 99.998% using fluxonium, a superconducting qubit.

Using famous Schrodinger's cat thought experiment, researchers devise a new silicon quantum chip that is less prone to logical errors.
