Greetings from NYC. You've heard of Moore's Law – the density of transistors on silicon will double roughly every two years – but there's a new sheriff in town. While announcing new "Rubin" AI chip architecture ahead of the COMPUTEX conference in Taipei, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang pledged to release new AI chip technology on a one-year basis. While not quite a replacement for Moore's Law, it’s meaningful because it throws down the gauntlet for AMD, Intel, Qualcomm, and the rest of the chip-making world.
The space is heating up as Microsoft, Google, Amazon, and Apple are all busy designing their own chips. Will there be enough manufacturing capacity? It's the right question.
