Make Hardware Great Again

Jeff BrowerJeff Brower June 29, 20204 comments

US weakness in 5G and the coming AI race stems from a deeper problem, hardware decline and lack of CPU innovation. Jeff Brower argues that the software-only narrative has hollowed out semiconductor leadership, leaving only a few chipmakers and blocking vital R&D. He calls for targeted government action, funding for neural-net chips, and an industrial Hardhattan Project to rebuild CPU and hardware capabilities.
