This was awesome ! Kudos to the speaker and next time you look at the cost of a processor, remember what goes into building them. The vast majority of people can't comprehend how difficult it really is. This helps bring that to light.
IBM staying relevant. Fascinating technology. More use of chemistry seems to be unavoidable at that scale. Eventually, I assume biochemistry is going to take over. Nature has probably found a better way a long time ago, just look at the brain.
The explanation at the beginning was useless. To someone like myself, I already know about MOSFETs. To someone who's not in the industry, you blew through that so fast that it actually had no value. Either explain something, or don't. But don't just rush through crap like that super fast and casually. It's not simple, and it shouldn't be treated as such. Why not just say, "You guys already know about MOSFETs, so I'm not going to cover it here." ?
Ima SuperPerson, it is important to brush on a concept so the future idea has handles to hold. I don't know if you have life experience enough to know about simple things like a hot pot in a fire but it helps when there are handles to grab it. Rather than reaching in and dropping the soup all over the floor handles are attached so that people without a specialized pot grabber(tm) can remove it and eat.
