Sure, you are right, I'm just sayin that this is not first time there's revolutionairy new technology for chips that promises something extrodinary. There's been a dozen since 2016 and i havent seen any of them implemented in practice.

Sure, but since 2016 it's been about better versions of ordinary chips for ordinary computation.

Now we're using chips more or less optimized for ordinary computation to do AI computation.

Now we're finding ways to optimize for AI instead. There's ample ground for innovation.

Because 2016 was 6 years ago. Taking something from discovery to full scale commercialization takes decades. Graphene for example was only discovered in 2004 but it's in early stages of commercialization right now. So...just wait.

It takes longer than you might imagine to go from research breakthrough to industrial production 10 -15 years, sometimes.
