Dwarkesh Podcast · Satya Nadella — Microsoft’s AGI plan & quantum breakthrough · 19 Feb 2025 podcast

And each of us is going to have it.

So basically think of it as there is knowledge work and there's a knowledge worker, right?

the knowledge work may be done by many, many agents, but you still have knowledge worker who is dealing with all the knowledge workers.

And that I think is the interface that one has to build.

Yeah, this has been, it's another, whatever, 30-year journey for us.

It's unbelievable.

Like, I'm the third CEO of Microsoft who's been excited about quantum.

the fundamental breakthrough here or the vision that we've always had is you need a physics breakthrough in order to build a utility scale quantum computer that works.

And so we took that path, you know, which was the path of sort of saying, look, the one way for having that

less noisy or the more reliable qubit is to bet on a physical property that by definition is more reliable.

And that's kind of what led us to this Majorana zero modes as the thing to go, which was theorized in the 1930s.

And so the question was, can we actually physically fabricate these things?

Can we actually build them?

So the big breakthrough, effectively, and I know you talked to Chetan, was that we now finally have existence proof and a physics breakthrough of Majorana zero modes in a new phase of matter, effectively.

So this is why I think we like the analogy of thinking of this as the transistor moment of quantum computing, where we effectively have a new...

phase, which is the topological phase, which means we can even now reliably hide the quantum information and measure it, and we can fabricate it.

And so now that we have it, we feel like with that core foundational fabrication technique out of the way, we can start building a Majorana chip, that Majorana 1, which I think is going to basically be the first chip that will be capable of a million qubits physical.

And then on that, thousands of logical qubits error corrected.

And then...

Game on, right?
