The Next Generation of Process Engineering: How Human-Machine Collaboration Will Usher In A New Era of Chip Innovation

In this week’s Fish Fry podcast, I’m going deep into the world of atomic-level process engineering with Keren Kanarik from Lam Research. Keren and I discuss how artificial intelligence can help speed up the process and lower the cost of chip innovation. We also investigate the engineering and AI challenges this research was looking to solve and the strategies that Keren and her team at Lam Research developed over the course of this ground-breaking research. Also this week, I take a closer look at new research from University of Hawaii at Manoa that suggests that electrons from Earth may be forming water on the moon.
