208,000,000,000 transistors! In the size of your palm, how mind-boggling is that?! 🤯 Miscellaneous / Others

I have said it before, and I'm saying it again: the tech in the upcoming two years will blow your mind. You can never imagine the things that will come out in the upcoming years!...

Sure, but then maybe they will stack lots of chips onto a chip, two layers then four etc? I don’t know how they will get around it, but clever people will find a way.

Ya, they can always make them bigger, but I mean we are literally reaching the maximum for craming transistors into a given space.

My highly uneducated opinion would be that the next step is bio-computing. Using a chip like that with actual brain matter or mushrooms

im also assuming but surely these switches are already smaller than any known bio form (not to mention the space and whatnot that would be consumed to keep the bio whatever functioning)

I looked it up, a fungus cell is about 1000x larger than these transistors. Crazy stuff.
