Dylan Patel & Jon (Asianometry) โ€“ How the Semiconductor Industry Actually Works

And basically at some point, a guy somewhere says, I think we can move forward with this.

No documentation.

It's unholy.

It's kind of really interesting to see, to think about like the development of how Chinese AI models will differ from American AI models because of these changes or these constraints.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Dylan Patel & Jon (Asianometry) โ€“ How the Semiconductor Industry Actually Works

Right.

So it's like because of all the surveillance cameras there.

Sorry.

I can only speak to the semiconductors part, even though I'm not an expert.

Dwarkesh Podcast

They'll do it.

Dwarkesh Podcast

I just wonder...

Dwarkesh Podcast
Dylan Patel & Jon (Asianometry) โ€“ How the Semiconductor Industry Actually Works

though he's right in that in a sense of 24 25 that's covered yeah but 26 27 that's that secret point where you have to say can the semiconductor industry and the rest of the industry be convinced that this is where the money is like where's money is like and that means is there money is there money by 24 25 how much how much revenue do you think the ai industry as a whole needs by 25 in order to keep scaling doesn't matter compared to smartphones compared to smartphones

Dwarkesh Podcast
Dylan Patel & Jon (Asianometry) โ€“ How the Semiconductor Industry Actually Works

I know he says it doesn't matter.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Dylan Patel & Jon (Asianometry) โ€“ How the Semiconductor Industry Actually Works

I'll get to it.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Dylan Patel & Jon (Asianometry) โ€“ How the Semiconductor Industry Actually Works

Yeah, it needs to be another smartphone size opportunity, right?

Dwarkesh Podcast
Dylan Patel & Jon (Asianometry) โ€“ How the Semiconductor Industry Actually Works

Like even the smartphone industry didn't drive this sort of growth.
