AFP looks at what that means, and why it’s important:
The computing power of chips has increased dramatically over the decades as makers cram them with more microscopic electronic components.
That has brought huge technological leaps to everything from smartphones to cars, as well as the advent of artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT.
Advanced 2-nanometre (2nm) chips perform better and are more…
