I had a similar idea of using synchrotron to generate very low wavelength light for lithography... I guess costs are an issue!

- baybal2 7y agoThe "lighbulb" in 3400 costs as much as a small research synchrotron already
- epicureanideal 7y agoWhat's 3400?

- eigenloss 7y agoNot a useful comparison. A single neuron is far better networked to its neighbors and far more complex/nonlinear than a transistor. There are already chips out there with 1e11 transistors, but they don't run "ai" even a little bit. Assuming you need something like 1e5 transistors to approximate one neuron, you'd need like 100m^2 of die area and interconnect to actually emulate a brain.
