One-on-one with imec's Jo De Boeck

The acceleration of technology s unprecedented: AI data centers, edge build-out, robotics, photonics, quantum, multi-die assemblies. Semiconductor Engineering Editor in Chief Ed Sperling talks with proteanTecs CEO Shai Cohen about what's changing and what impact it will have. 

John Kibarian, CEO of PDF Solutions, talks with Semiconductor Engineering's Ed Sperling about the growing role of AI in chip manufacturing, the impact of 3D-ICs on the supply chain, and how to shorten cycle time to get leading-edge chips and multi-die assemblies to market more quickly.

AI is everywhere, and it includes a lot of data that needs to be processed, moved, stored, and retrieved. That takes a lot of energy, and it creates a whole bunch of problems that need to be addressed throughout a chip's lifecycle. 

Everything starts with AI — stacked die and chiplets, digital twins, and looming job market changes.
