@lobo what anthropic is saying is that china does not have access to EULV lithography equipment, so they can't make chips with the same transistor densities.but, largely, i am not sure it matters. inference needs tile-based matmul. they can make up the difference by sharding the tiles across multiple chiplets and more aggressive cooling.

@ariadne @lobo I got hearsay that their EULV problem is either solved already or will be very soon. Like, the west can export-restrict ASML all they want and soon it won’t matter

@chrisvest @lobo i am legitimately looking forward to this because it should drive down chip costs
