As a (former) Silicon Valley semiconductor process engineer, my chips are my children, not as precious as my flesh and blood kids, but they’ve traveled further, by millions or perhaps billions of miles. They’ve increased human knowledge, saved lives, and created innumerable jobs. And they’ve never asked me for money...
I can tell you the latest 7nm process is a real monster.
Makes 14nm seem like a walk in the park.
On the positive note, we should see a speed increase.
