Don't just move things around...

@i2cjak Thanks! I am not familiar with the power supply side of analog so this was a good read!

@beaversteever It's a general processing unit now...

@BrianRoemmele 8/ Lastly, the gain cell array is beneficial only with large parallelism. Since you're trying to make it, try finding an IC vendor who provides RRAM memories. Making this on PCB, which I am guessing since you're making spice sims, loses on power, performance and area.
Good luck.

@BrianRoemmele 7/ Will Nvidia try to make something that saves them 30-50% of the energy? Unlikely.
But there are AI chip startups that are targeting using in-memory compute. They are doing good work. Some even have products out.

@bubbleboi Too late imo, most companies have already shifted large stacks of physical design to India, and it will continue.
Architecture and design is still being done in US, and currently digital design is slowly being outsourced.

@bubbleboi Fast chips hit the TDP limit, so there could only be a single core that runs that fast. Parallelism is more important now.

Also, I think you're referring to only computer architecture when you mention those schools. Not the full picture.

@george__mack This is incorrect. The outcome heavily relies on the actions taken.
One can be a pessimist yet still take the correct actions to succeed.

Howdy, @TheKGTS. I made it.
