Many leaders suffer from tunnel vision and in this case if China invades, they will be victims of their own tunnel vision. Just imagine what a war would do to trade. Freight ships are large slow easy targets and China lives on trade.
Modern chips and electronics have changed warfare forever. The types, size, versatility, ability to sleep for years, land, sea and air, intelligence have increased the number of ways to wage war and cyber-attacks in ways only limited by the imagination. Expect to see more of this in the...
Just read an arthicle on Ukraine using cheap drones to take out expensive targets, producing a hundred drones a day at low cost Taiwan could devestate China at very low cost. The Ukraine war has definitly changed the rules of war thanks to cheap chips and other changes. The rules of war have...
Many companies are working on quantum chips, but TSM with the technical expertise in manufacturing and the number of high-end fabs, could be the best option for making quantum chips in large quantities. Any thoughts or comments on this appreciated.
There is little doubt China could take over Taiwan, but there is huge doubt as far as the cost. As Russia is finding out with the Ukraine disaster. It would be far better for China to obtain what it wants by peaceful means through negotiation. With Taiwan's advanced technologies combined with...
I see AI/ML taking over not only chip design, but the design of almost everything. At the very least I see AI/ML taking over many tasks at an ever-accelerating rate as it feeds on itself at an ever-accelerating rate. AI/ML is definitely going to speed up the game/business in everything and...
I see professional AI/ML programs going to a subscription service like many other business models. This will happen at a n ever accelerating rate as training become more automated where AI does quality control on other AIs. We are in the very early stages of AI/ML and the transition across the...
Will this new type of battery become the ultimate game changer or just a curiosity?
Glass Battery in the Real World: 5 Uses You'll Actually See (2025)
As the push for sustainable energy solutions accelerates, innovations like glass batteries are gaining traction. These batteries promise safer...
The combination of advancing AI/ML/Automation will apply to everything including just about every skill set there is from manual labor to the professions, politics even law enforcement of both blue collar and white-collar crime. The automation of medical which is twenty percent of the US...
Just like the semi sector has been advancing, so has the numerous methods of 3D printing and advanced metal forming (Tesla) the combination will advance robotics at a steadily advancing timeline. The impact of this will be broad and deep with massive dislocation if not managed carefully. It...
Any thoughts on how fast AI/ML and advanced robotics will replace human workers appreciated. I just recently interfaced with an AI for trouble shooting and it was dead on. With robotics also advancing at an accelerating rate any thoughts about the coming mass dislocation of the labor force...
I feel it's not a matter of if, but when. Also, what is the community's opinion on automation and robotics? I feel automation of just about everything is now on the horizon and getting closer every day. Any thoughts, comments or possible timelines appreciated. I see the next five years to...
As the only maker of HBM in the US, can Micron expand fast enough to meet domestic demand, let alone any foreign demand? Will Micron ever have enough production to export? Thanks.
The AI/ML revolution is still in its very early stages, just like the computer industry of years ago. There will be numerous failures of companies that are built on hype and little else or not capable of delivering the latest models and applications needed. This is like the early stages of the...
The more money they spend buying imports allow less money for developing home grown solutions and the more money foriegn companies make to advance research.
In the near future we will have autonomous AI that will operate on its own handling many tasks in the background without us even knowing or directing it. This will become part of the "Great Acceleration" that I have written about in the past, but far greater scale than most have even imagined...
Letting China buy advanced chips at this point could cripple Chinese companies and could benefit the foreign makers, could this be a reality of commercial warfare that has been going on for years? Should we support embargoes that allow/force China to build up a substantial and competitive...
Any thoughts on how long the AI/ML evolution will continue and the directions it will take? I feel we have at least five more years for the technologies involved to play out will see far deeper and much more diversity in the applications over what we have already seen.
AI/ML is in its very, very early stages and the winners will be those that learn how to not only apply AIs great power and efficiency but apply this to the finances behind it. AI/ML holds the promise of huge savings, but many will be made obsolete as their skill sets are rendered obsolete and...
