10 minutes with Sami

ASML, Semiconductors, and the AI Act


Listen Later

In today's episode of "10 Minutes with Sami," we explore three hot topics in the world of technology. We start with the intriguing measure by ASML and TSMC to remotely disable their chip machines in the event of a Chinese invasion of Taiwan, analyzing its implications for global security and the semiconductor supply chain. Then, we discuss the European Union's approval of the Artificial Intelligence Act, a regulatory milestone that establishes a comprehensive legal framework for AI, categorizing technologies according to their level of risk and protecting citizens' rights.

We finish with a look at the promising development of light-based chips, which use photons to transmit and process information. This advancement could revolutionize speed, energy efficiency, and data transmission capacity in computing and telecommunications, though not without facing its own challenges in integration and manufacturing. Join us to discover how these technological advancements will shape our future.
