科學家對微軟的量子計算研究提出質疑
Scientists Question Microsoft's Quantum Computing Research

在2025年2月，微軟(Microsoft)宣布其「Majorana 1」晶片在量子運算領域取得了重大突破，並承諾在數年內實現實用的量子電腦。
In February 2025, Microsoft announced a major leap in quantum computing with its 'Majorana 1' chip, promising a practical quantum computer within years.
然而，這份樂觀情緒卻遭到了科學界強烈的抵制。
However, this optimism has met significant resistance from the scientific community.
到2026年6月，權威期刊《自然》(Nature)發表了一篇由亨利·雷格(Henry Legg)博士撰寫的評論文章，挑戰了微軟所使用的核心驗證方法。
By June 2026, the prestigious journal Nature published a critique by Dr.
雷格認為，該公司的「拓撲間隙協定」(Topological Gap Protocol)軟體存在程式碼錯誤，且原始數據被刻意遺漏，這暗示微軟可能將隨機雜訊誤認為是真正的科學突破。
Henry Legg, which challenged the core validation methods used by Microsoft.
這並非微軟首次面臨此類批評，該公司此前曾在2018年和2021年面臨兩篇重要論文被撤回的窘境。
Legg argued that the company’s 'Topological Gap Protocol' software contained coding errors and that raw data was omitted, suggesting the company might be mistaking random noise for genuine scientific breakthroughs.
儘管爭議不斷，微軟仍致力於其拓撲路徑，近期還揭曉了「Majorana 2」晶片，並為其軟體辯護，稱其為實用的調校工具。
Critics argue that these announcements create a 'credibility gap' in the quantum industry.
這種情況凸顯了高風險科技領域中的緊張局勢：如何在快速、搶佔頭條的進展壓力，與科學同儕審查中嚴謹、緩慢的必要要求之間取得平衡。
Despite the controversy, Microsoft remains committed to its topological approach, recently unveiling the 'Majorana 2' chip and defending its software as a practical tuning tool.
