American businessman and venture capitalist Stephen Jurvetson laid out over a century of Moore's Law on computational power advancements in a post on X.

Jurvetson, the founder of Future Ventures who funded Skype, SpaceX, Tesla, Zoox, Boring Company, and other startups, color-coded the transition from mechanical to relay to vacuum tube to transistor and finally to integrated circuits.

He pointed out that "Moore's Law has transitioned most recently from the GPU (green dots) to the ASIC (yellow and orange dots), and the NVIDIA Hopper architecture itself is a transitionary species—from GPU to ASIC, with 8-bit performance optimized for AI models, the majority of new compute cycles."

He made forecasts about chip advancements:

  • Custom ASIC chips and future analog in-memory compute technologies offer even closer biomimicry of the human brain, further advancing AI capabilities.

  • Moore's Law is expected to persist for at least another 20 years, enabling continued cost reductions in computational power and storage.

Jurvetson emphasized, "I would go further and assert that this is the most important graph ever conceived." . .

This is the most important graph ever: https://gradecalculator.mes.fm/img/memes/pacman-pie-chart.jpg

It's profound too. Does the part that doesn't actually contribute to the part that does, and thus is also part of the resemblence?
