“They will always be behind”
Car manufacturers said the same.
- aurareturn 7mo agoIt did take decades to catch and surpass US car makers right?
- seanmcdirmid 7mo agoAbout 2.5 decades from the start of the JVs, but they did it. Semiconductors and jet turbines are really the last two tech trees that China has yet to master.
- aurareturn 7mo agoRight. When I said "they'll always be behind", I meant in the next 5-10 years. They're gated by EUV tech. And once they have EUV tech, they need to scale up chip manufacturing.
- spiderfarmer 7mo agoYou will always be wrong.
- aurareturn 7mo agoI've been right far more than wrong on this stuff. :)
- spiderfarmer 7mo agoRight. When I said "you'll always be wrong", I meant you're sometimes right.
- Barbing 7mo agoWhich might they master first?
- seanmcdirmid 7mo agoBoth are hard nuts but China is throwing massive amounts of money at the problem. They can already get performance or economy from each, they just need to figure out how to get both at the same time.
