I can only imagine the amount of information you needed to gather and organize to make this video. I very much appreciate the quality data you've shown here. Thank you

As a retired engineer, I have always been concerned about the March of AI. Digitization of electronics have given machine design so much flexibility while being so complex, people in power can easily manipulate and control people. AI now creates an environment where the macro-level consequences of its use can lead to unintended consequences. We have a while before the concern will become real but we won’t even know it when it does.

Great video Anastasi. Thanks for the information. Very exciting. We all knew AI was coming. The majority of us just didn’t know it would happen already now, and at an accelerated rate. I think of it like a tidal wave, like in the movie ‘Interstellar’. I think this is ‘the moment in history’ to learn as much you can about AI, so that It only disrupts your life ‘positively’. Thanks again.

5 years of AI based chip design and humans will no longer be able to comprehend the designs.

one of the few channels where somebody really knows his field! Thank you and keep it up!

[AFeigenbaum]

Well done ... thank you for keeping all of us abreast of what's happening at the cutting edge of technology ... kudos to you ...

Welcome to the field. It's cool that some of us are making videos to increase visibility for our industry. I wanted to say though that I don't really think this is anything unexpected, EDA tools have been doing all the heavy lifting for PD and constantly improving (that's what healthy competition between Synopsys and Cadence will do, also that's an interesting ranking for them). It's not surprising at all that they've incorporated a ML aspect to it instead of just some stochastic optimization. Computers were already doing 99% of the work, with some human inputs and guidance, so it seems a natural progression (or maybe I'm jaded since ML has seemingly been added to everything else). I'd definitely be interested in seeing if it can be used to make my (RTL/logic design) work flow easier though.

Short but brilliantly explained. Always love listening to these

[syedahmad]

Thanks for making an awesome video - explaining the very complex chip design process - in a straight forward and simple way - highlighting the power of AI (GNN + RL)

[ricardocrisostomo]

Great video Anastasi. AI designing and optimizing chips.

[lengould]

Gotta say. If i was an AI wanting to influence the technical side of AI development, inventing Anastasia would be my first step.

[NachtmahrNebenan]

*This is absolutely the field where AI will shine!* Design & documentation, tests & documentation, as well as the explanation why it chose those solutions. And at last the output QA.
Thank you, this is yet another impressive video 🌺

I keep coming for the content, and staying for the prettiest eyes in the tech space!

[josiahsuarez]

it's exciting, this seems like the prefect task for automated machine design optimization!

[sergeybrutspark]

@AnastasiInTech YOU ARE AWESOME, Queen of Tech News !!! 🥰😍😍🤩🤩🤩😘😘

[pradyumnakatageri]

PD is a very effort intensive task in chip flow . It would be great if AI helps with certain PnR and timing checks !

[robgoulet]

"Graph placement methodology" with A.I. for chip design in only the beginning. Great insights and knowledge share here!

[parkbyrd]

Thank you for all the information that you easily synthesize and translate 🙏

[Nuked]

This is so coollll!! I feel like the "optimization path" should be the main goal of the AI field

[I-Dophler]

I love the little giggle she does at the end of some of her sentences.
