Thanks to this law, chips have gotten smaller, faster, more efficient, and cheaper. But today, there are four key problems that trip up this trend, potentially ending Moore’s Law and fundamentally changing how computing progresses. Sajan Saini and George Zaidan investigate.Lesson by Sajan Saini and George Zaidan, directed by Jeff Le Bars, JetPropulsion.space.A special thanks to Anuradha Murthy Agarwal who provided information and insights for the development of this video.Artists and artworks referenced in the animation:\"The Persistence of Memory and The Disintegration of the Persistence of Memory\" by Salvador Dalí\"Composition VIII​\" by Wassily Kandinsky​\"Oh Jeff and Girl with Tear III​\" by Roy Lichtenstein\"Black Square on a White Background​\" by Kazimir Malevich\"Triptych Bleu I, II, III​\" by Joan MiróPiet Mondrian\"Marilyn\" by Andy WarholSupport Our Non-Profit Mission----------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonCheck out our merch: http://bit.ly/TEDEDShop----------------------------------------------Connect With Us----------------------------------------------Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagram----------------------------------------------Keep Learning----------------------------------------------View full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/have-we-reached-the-limit-of-computer-power-sajan-saini-and-georg…","meta_description":"Dig into Moore’s Law and explore its 4 main limitations and how they could change how we are able to make progress in computing.--Moore’s Law states that…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":478,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/ted-ed-7859430/episodes/have-we-hit-the-ceiling-of-computational-power-sajan-saini-and-george-zaidan/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ted-ed-7859430/have-we-hit-the-ceiling-of-computational-power-sajan-saini-and-george-zaidan.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
