Semidynamics AI SemiWiki

AI has changed a lot in the last ten years. In 2012, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) were the state of the art for computer vision. Then around 2020 vison transformers (ViTs) redefined machine learning. Now, Vision-Language Models (VLMs) are changing the game again—blending image and text understanding to power everything… Read More

AI maximizing verification productivity min

While Cadence and Synopsys were sharing a lot of detail over the past few years about what they were doing in AI, Siemens EDA seemed content to offer a very general picture about their intentions without getting into a lot of detail. At DVCon 2025 they finally pulled back the curtain. Why wait until now to announce?

DVCon 2025 talk min

I mentioned in an earlier blog that multiple presentations at DVCon 2025 went all-in on AI-assisted design and verification. The presentation was one such example, looking very much at top-down AI-expert application of agentic flows to design and verification. AlphaDesign is a new startup out of UC Santa Barbara headed by William… Read More

Rise DA advantages min

DVCon 2025 was unquestionably a forum for pulling out all the stops in AI-based (RTL) design and verification, particularly around generative AI and agentic methods. I heard three product pitches and a keynote and have been told that every AI talk was standing room only. A pitch from Rise-DA particularly appealed to me because … Read More
