AI has the potential to transform the automotive industry, enabling advanced software-defined vehicles. But AI also brings challenges, such as increased power consumption, design complexity, and processing performance requirements. This week, IBM and Honda announced their intent to collaborate on the joint research and development of new semiconductor technology and software to address these challenges and enable software-defined vehicles of the future.

Tech Thursday ASML can remotely disable or have a kill switch in event of hostility. Leading-edge microchips contain billions of transistors. With each new generation (often referred to as a ‘node’), chipmakers pack in ever more and tinier transistors to make the chips more powerful, faster and energy efficient. Chips made with EUV lithography are enabling smart technology (cars, phones and homes), augmented reality, artificial intelligence and much more. Even without this kill switch these machines are sophisticated and complex - frequent Maintenance, upgrades are required to keep them at optimum performance up to $300 Million per machines Buyer Beware!! Technology Risks It is rumoured that even F35 requires special code to start the plane.

How AI-Informed Imaging Can Accurately Detect Subtle Defects in Semiconductors -Sept. 27, 2023 Manufacturers looking at smaller semiconductors must inspect at more points in the process without increasing the overall time for inspection.

2023 has had one prevailing technological theme: #artificialintelligence. Yet the #semiconductorindustry—a key driver behind technological progress—has still not figured out how to harness the power of AI to overcome its own challenges. Jamie Potter, CEO and Cofounder of #Flexciton, discusses what he believes needs to be done in order to enable the autonomous future of semiconductor manufacturing.

Good to observe this progress.

ASML and TSMC Can Disable Chip Machines If China Invades Taiwan: An anonymous reader quotes a report from Bloomberg: ASML Holding NV and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. have ways to disable the world's most sophisticated chipmaking machines in the event that China invades Taiwan, according to people familiar with the matter. Officials from the US government have privately expressed concerns to both their Dutch and Taiwanese counterparts about what happens if Chinese aggression escalates into an attack on the island responsible for producing the vast majority of the world's advanced semiconductors, two of the people said, speaking on condition of anonymity. ASML reassured officials about its ability to remotely disable the machines when the Dutch government met with the company on the threat, two others said. The Netherlands has run simulations on a possible invasion in order to better assess the risks, they added. The remote shut-off applies to Netherlands-based ASML's line of extreme ultraviolet machines, known within the industry as EUVs, for which TSMC is its single biggest client. EUVs harness high-frequency light waves to print the smallest microchip transistors in existence -- creating chips that have artificial-intelligence uses as well as more sensitive military applications. About the size of a city bus, an EUV requires regular servicing and updates. As part of that, the company can remotely force a shut-off which would act as a kill switch, the people said, speaking on condition of anonymity. The Veldhoven-based company is the world's only manufacturer of these machines, which sell for more than $217 million apiece. Read more of this story at Slashdot.
