I’m just going to say: after the monopoly-induced stagnation of the 2010s, finally we’re back to something looking like competition-driven Moore’s Law-level performance increases.
- jeffbee 5y agoI don't really think it is fair to describe the situation where there are two major competitors and one of them ships abject garbage for ten years as a "monopoly". Can we blame Intel for the junk AMD made starting from Barcelona all the way up to and including Naples?
- sjcoles 5y agoNah, this is one of the last pushes before true stagnation due to physics. The next 5-10 years will have rapid innovation where you'll see ever growing caches and/or unified caches, higher bit interconnects (a la 512bit ddr5 bus on the m1 max), and a bigger emphasis on heterogeneous computing. Nano ribbons and better gaa should give another boost in 3-5years or so but we're rapidly approaching an end to what we can do.
