We all know that Moore's law is done for in terms of silicon based integrated circuits. What is the next paradigm? Is there one?
I remember something about the limit to silicon being around ~14 atoms per transistor. That seems pretty good to me. What other paradigm would be better than that? Even if we got it down to 3-4 atoms per transistor, would that really be that big a deal? It's really not that much better. What's the point in trying to keep Moore's law going other than the egos of some EE nerds?
I don't want to hear about Quantum Computing it's not happening any time soon and it's not useful outside of like gene sequencing and shit.

Layered sheets?

Probably won't happen.

It's over. Clock speed won't increase for at least 50 years.

last I read, intel is down to 7nm. should reach production in 5 years ish. The next best bet Id guess is going to be biomechanic computers. 10 dog brains in parallel might be a good computer. idk, im an economist

>>biomechanical
You can't game on a dog's brain. We csn't even interface with brains all that well, neither can we keep brains alive outsidr of the body

this belongs in the stupid question thread

I mean well miss a few steps catching up to moores law. then simulate small brains then be able to wire up real ones. 20 years and we should be back on track

it's dead, today's improvements in computing power are almost entirely the result of increased parallelism and very few single-core improvements.

we are nowhere near the dead end for silicon for fuck's sake 5nm chips will be commercially available in '25-'26, after that there is still new experimental infrastructure geometry which should keep us going for a decade or two and in the meantime, who fucking know what else pops up.

10nm chips are supposed to hit the market in 2018
