This is the bottleneck. EUV Photolithography is one of the hardest engineering challenges ever faced, it's like trying to drop a feather from space and guaranteeing it lands on a specific blade of grass. Manufacturing these GPUs at all requires us to stretch the limit of what is physically possible in multiple domains, much less producing them at scale.
- xtracto 3y agoThanks for this explanation! :) (as someone without knowledge of the hardware process I appreciated it). It is SO amazing that we have such a driving force (LLMs/consumer-AI) for this (instead of stupid cryptocurrencies mining or high-performance gaming). This should drive innovation pretty strongly and I am sure the next "leap" in this regard (processing hardware) will put technology in a completely different level.
- fatherzine 3y agoThat's a cool last minute detour from techno gods. We can incentivize AI to work on crypto mining, and regain our fully engaged primeval lives back ;)
