SANTA CLARA, Calif. — It’s the age of AI, Moore’s Law is not dead, and technology is changing everything, according to Aart de Geus, co-chief executive of Synopsys, in a talk at the company’s annual user group conference here.
The advent of AI is a mile marker on par with the invention of the printing press and the steam engine, De Geus said.
“It will drive the semiconductor industry for the next few decades because Big Data needs machine learning and machine learning needs more computation, which generates more data. This will impact health, transportation and other vertical markets as they go digital,” he said.
