AI Alone Isn’t Ready for Chip Design

Cars That Think

Chip design has come a long way since 1971, when Federico Faggin finished sketching the first commercial microprocessor, the Intel 4004 , using little more than a straightedge and colored pencils. Today’s designers have a plethora of software tools at their disposal to plan and test new integrated circuits. Here’s why.
