Excellent podcast

[@Ramzanmalik_here]

I am extremely impressed by the way he has put forward his arguments.

[@ehpasha1]

This was great. Would have loved to hear more.

[@bnzkhan]

Good talk 👍🏻

Finally some pakistani content creator (not truly tho) talking about this!!

The biggest earthquake will be when the Chinese introduce RISC-V based processors and GPU's that can compete with Intel/NVidia.

[@muddi900]

RISC-V still needs to be built using the machines that China does not have access to. There is only one fabricator manufacturer in the world and China does not have access to them.

[@_arshadm]

@@muddi900 No they have their own fabs, they don't have the latest lithography machines but it doesn't mean that can't make highly competitive processors. Huawei uses their own processors in their new devices which are pretty much cutting edge.

[@muddi900]

@@_arshadm Cutting edge is a stretch. they are very good SoCs for 2017.

[@_arshadm]

@muddi900 I think we're talking about different things, if you're talking about the RISC-V from SiFive then yeah they're fairly basic SoC, I am twlling about the chips used by Huawei which use ARM ip bur were manufactured in China. There are some laptops that use RISC-V, all it really needs investments in chip design. If Apple can design a state of the art chip, I can't see why China can't build server chips thar the best and cheapest in the world

[@muddi900]

@@_arshadm No I am talking about the current Huawei chips. They managed to develop something really good. The problem with designing great chips is that the people that can do that are very rare. The people who designed apple chips left to build their own company, which was acquired by Qualcomm, which is now producing apps on par with apple. Apple's followup to the M1 have shown limited improvement. Huawei faces the same issue.

He's being a bit disingenuous on the sanctions issue. It's not that the sanctions don't work. They work-- they're meant to slow down proliferation of dual use tech, not to prevent it completely from spreading. And if you want to really not let tech out, that too works: aircraft engine cores are a prime example. The ones who know that tech won't share it with anybody. Your PAK-FA fighter jet's engine is imported, and will always be so. Unless the Chinese industrial spies finally crack the secrets-- they're certainly relentlessly trying.

[@himanv]

What's a "sixth gen" fighter? The definitions are fluid, nobody has a firm grasp on what that means. Their designs look derivative of American designs, and blended wing designs are not new. What is the aircraft engine powering these "sixth gen" aircraft? More Russian reverse engineered domestically built stuff? The Chinese are building passenger aircraft, but those rely on Western engines to fly! What makes you think their fighter jets have domestic engines but not their commercial jumbo jets? lol
