There’s a lot of discussion around @Tesla cosmic Roadster vs the new @Porsche Mission S. Well, I don’t see why everyone is acting like @Porsche has failed.
The Roadster is like an Apple Watch. Packed with technology, full of features you want to explore. Some you need... some you probably don’t, but you’re amazed by the engineering. Especially if, like me, you adore space.
The Porsche is like a swiss watch. You want it for the engineering too, but a different kind... for the craftsmanship and how it makes you feel. A new smartwatch that tracks your steps and runs doesn’t make you stop adoring a mechanical watch.
If I could choose XD, I’d get the Porsche. What about you?
What a fun day at @imec_int ITF World conference.
The bottom line:
→ The future of technology looks very stacked.
→ Scaling is no longer just about shrinking transistors.
🚨The biggest transition happening in next-gen computing right now.
A quick thread from my recent keynote — on why photonics is rising and the top companies to watch in this space:
5. Add a DAC — and now the same device can perform analog multiplication — multiplying input light with an analog weight. That’s the basis of matrix multiply–accumulate (MAC), the core operation behind many AI workloads.
