1nm is a marketing number boys. Each “node” is about a .7-.8 shrink and 20-30% performance at ISO power.
Moore’s law is really an economic law and as long as there is ROI someone will invest the 20B in RD and another 20B+ to manufacture it. TSMC has huge lost of customers that line up to use the next node.
They will find a way to shrink and sell the next generation! You think Apple, AMD, Nvidia, Qualcomm want their business to end? No they all work with TSMC to define and find value in the next node.
The value with HPC, AI, autonomous cars, 5G has made advanced silicon the most important thing, the oil and steel of this decade. Why do you think the US is running so scared of the East these days as they are totally behind and will never catch up
