I don’t really understand why so much exponential technical and financial resources are allocated to attempt to maybe gain low performance / power efficiency incremental (10% / 15%) improvements on a technology, like silicon transistors, that is close to reaching its limit and is a dead end, versus re-allocating those resources to significantly invest in next generation computing technologies like spintronics related technologies (MRAM, Intel MESO concept, French R&D Lab Spintec FESO concept,…) as it seems that could improve power efficiency from 5x to 30x with plenty new opportunities (better suited for AI,…).

The development of CFET is much too expensive compared to opportunities that spintronic related technologies would provide : CFET is unfortunately delaying a much better technology (spintronic technologies).

Also I don’t understand that at this stage DARPA and the US government (US CHIPS Act) still don’t yet make it a top priority fin order that the US regain its technological leadership…
