ASML is just an oven, an oven built on old US R&D they bought out years ago.
The real secret is how you use that oven to bake the cake, which the taiwanese are very secretive about and is why intel and smic are mostly sitting on their asses despite acquiring their own EUV machines to play around with years ago.

Scanners move the wafer and mask synchronously, with a couple nm of reproducibility. That's the Dutch tech.

if they were to give those assets to the US, then china would roll in and take over. the main reason china has not thus far is because 1) they need those chip factories themselves as well, so they can't blow them up and 2) they're afraid of US intervention. US would have no reason to intervene if they didn't have those factories. but also if they announced that they were giving all the factories, know-how and etc. to the US, that might in fact be catalyst that causes china to roll in and drop bombs on said factories the US couldn't have them.

taiwan giving the factories either the US or china exclusive access to those factories would inevitably lead to armed intervention either way, so literally the only way for them to live is to have both countries be dependent on them. if both US and china ever get their own chips factories up to speed by themselves then again china will probably take over because the US won't bother intervene unless the admin at that time feels like it

I watched the movie "Her" while binging AI movies when the AI buzz was really heating up in the last few years.
Joaquin Phoenix plays the most over the top pathetic excuse for a man you could ever imagine who falls in love with his AI. The movie is stupid, the premise is stupid, the ending is stupid, and the main character is so unrelatable that I couldn't even suspend my disbelief that any human would be this pathetic to believe a computer loves them.

And yet here we are. The movie is 95% on rotten tomatoes and receives "universal acclaim."

Sam Bankman-Fried started a crypto exchange called FTX. He was crypto's poster boy because he gave a shitload of money to various causes and seemed to genuinely be a genius. However, he was taking tons of money from the crypto exchange and putting it into a company called Alameda Research which was heavily and stupidly invested in many many worthless shitcoins. In addition, FTX leveraged itself with its own token, basically saying it had much more money than it actually did. When crypto cratered after the previous crash (LUNA fronted by Do Kwon, another hilarious fraudster), FTX collapsed and took over 100 billion dollars of wealth with it. Binance, the biggest exchange, also said it was going to step in and buy FTX but they pulled out at the last second just to fuck FTX. The weasel girl was some math major who knew nothing about finance but was in charge at Alameda. Oh and apparently everyone was literally fucking each other at Alameda. Just wait for the Netflix.

Researchers are constantly figuring out how to do things better. But there's a delay before that goes to market. There's at least a 3 year delay. A big problem though is once you train up one of these LLMs, you're more or less stuck with it. If it turns out to be a big brick of shit compared to the latest approaches, tough luck. Meta did this with one of its Llamas models codenamed "Behemoth." Giant waste of money and more or less salvageable. When you commit to training an LLM there's no turning back. IMO this is bad software. Software should be able to be salvaged.
(Side note: Maybe you can do some knowledge transfer with a trained up LLM, but it's more or less a brick once a better method is announced.)

>>106482919

I have a friend in a startup that is now heavily using LLM coding. He used to hire a bunch of contractors (some in eastern europe), but is now leaning mostly on the AI. He has about 20 years of experience. He told me that sometimes the AI does things that are wrong (it apparently likes to delete comments for no reason), and it sometimes tries to create software architectures that my friend says, "he knows will cause problems down the line", so he has to force it to do what he wants. But overall the assessment is that although this isn't perfect by any means, it is a technology indistinguishable from magic as a user and has been absolutely transformational for him and how he works.

He mentioned the early stuff couldn't even match up divs in html.

Its no wonder new CS graduates are having a hard time finding jobs.

I think you underestimate how prepared they are for invasion and dealing with it alone, it would be insanely bloody on both sides if China tried. Estimates are for over a million landing force, 3x the size of d-day in an era of cheap ubiquitous satellites.
You talk big but China owning TSMC would absolutely rape the western world and entirely upend the global order.
The only thing Taiwanese are relying on from fickle Americans is that they'll nuke TSMC factories before letting China have them.

>>106488149
>entirely upend the global order.
That also speaks toward China not invading. China needs healthy economies to export into. If China ham-fistedly borks the global supply of high-end chip manufacturing, that isn't going to be healthy for the global economy and it won't make friends with the countries it needs to export to.

You dumb fucks simply don't get that at that level of advanced fabs and incremental improvement it's not something you can buy off a shelf, because every country/region would have by now. It's a culture, one that for some reason the US, China and EU have been unable to replicate for decades now.

China depends so heavily on them too, it's the biggest export market for chips, the silicon shield is a fucking masterstroke of national defense strategy, it's stronger than any nuclear weapon.
Taiwanese have known how precarious their existence is since the vend of WW2, getting ahead of the curve in advanced manufacturing is the culmination of that after 80 years.

Musing right now, think about all the languages and frameworks that get created to manage the boilerplate itself. Maybe with AI tooling that is seen to be unnecessary.

Is this a bubble? Of course it is! So what? Just because the .com bubble popped doesn't mean the internet disappeared or that technical progress stopped. Modern hardware is immensely more powerful than in 2000 - and really that progress lead to this bubble being possible.

>Have Europoors not come up with contingency plans
They have but never implemented them because every time EU tries to get little bit away from US, US then smacks them back into submission. Recently EU was talking about spending trillions building local military manufacturing, but then Trump got a deal where he forced EU to only buy US military equipment and also pay 4% worth of EU GDP for US LNG. Not a single European I know likes it, because instead of making our own equipment we will have to buy extremely overpriced junk from US that is 90% manufactured in China anyway, and then also risk US not following article 5. You can’t make contingency plan for US fucking up when they keep behaving like this and trying to put everyone else down. The only reason why China has yet not completely beaten US in AI is because US put the chip ban on China which only bought them less then a decade time before China invents their own NVIDIA chips.
