Consider the following statements:
I. It is expected that Majorana 1 chip will enable quantum computing.
II. Majorana 1 chip has been introduced by Amazon Web Services (AWS).
III. Deep learning is a subset of machine learning.
Which of the statements given above are correct?
Explanation
Answer: (c) I and III only
Explanation:
• Statement I: Majorana fermions are particles that could enable fault-tolerant quantum computing. Research into Majorana-based chips (e.g., by Microsoft) suggests they could advance quantum computing, so this statement is correct.
• Statement II: The Majorana 1 chip is associated with Microsoft’s quantum computing efforts, not AWS. AWS focuses on cloud-based quantum computing services (e.g., Amazon Braket), not specific chip development like Majorana. This statement is incorrect.
• Statement III: Deep learning is indeed a subset of machine learning, involving neural networks with multiple layers to analyze complex data. This statement is correct.
Thus, I and III are correct, making the answer (c).
