AI is creating an exciting new era of growth for the semiconductor industry. It is also fueling a data explosion that will require order-of-magnitude improvements in chip and system performance and power efficiency – far beyond what classic Moore’s Law scaling and Von Neumann computing architectures can deliver. New breakthroughs will be needed, from materials to devices and systems: the AI Design Forum will identify and propose solutions to the biggest technology issues of our time.
The AI Design Forum is being hosted by SEMI Americas and Applied Materials, and runs concurrently with the SEMICON West trade show. Immediately following the Forum will be the SEMICON West Bulls and Bears Panel, moderated by The New York Times contributor Don Clark, with these panelists:
- Evercore ISI: CJ Muse
- Jefferies: Mark Lipacis
- Macquarie Group: Srini Pajjuri
- Morgan Stanley: Mark Edelstone
- New Street Research: Pierre Ferragu
