Ep 9: Can an Ordinary Chip Factory Build a Quantum Computer?
Diraq and imec show eight coherent silicon spin qubits made on a standard 300mm chip foundry line — a real manufacturing milestone with an aggressive roadmap attached. Plus: Nord Quantique's hundredfold error-rate improvement, the EU's new neutral-atom pilot line, a trapped-ion scaling framework, an aerospace quantum pact, and why quantum stocks tanked for reasons that have nothing to do with quantum.
