Could you build a CPU from superconducting material, maybe partially, so that it generates much less heat when operating?

- JonChesterfield 3y agoHeat is a serious limiting factor for silicon. This is the application I'm excited about for superconductors, room temperature or not.
- im3w1l 3y agoI'd expect it to take a decade at the very least and probably much longer. Don't hold your breath. Like compare it to other experimental stuff like quantum computers, light based computers. Where are they? Not on a shelf near me, that's for sure.
