The socket is the motherboard, Part 2 — Intel archrival (and Nvidia’s BFF) plans to build giant chips that could use kilowatts of power but they won’t be as big as Cerebras trillion transistor behemoth

The socket is the motherboard, Part 2 — Intel archrival (and Nvidia’s BFF) plans to build giant chips that could use kilowatts of power but they won’t be as big as Cerebras trillion transistor behemoth

A few weeks ago, we wrote how Eliyan’s NuLink PHY could do away with silicon interposers and integrate everything into an single, elegant package. How, essentially, the socket could become the motherboard. At the recent 30th annual North America Technology Symposium, the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) revealed plans to construct a version of its … Read more

Rotating curved spacetime signatures from a giant quantum vortex

Rotating curved spacetime signatures from a giant quantum vortex

To experimentally realize a curved spacetime such as a black hole requires a specific relative motion between the excitations and the background medium. One-dimensional supersonic flow, the archetypal example of an acoustic black hole, provides a platform for observations of Hawking radiation in both classical20,21 and quantum fluids9,10,22. More complex phenomena such as Penrose superradiance … Read more
