The DDR market will adapt, as China grey market state fab smells the opportunity. They have been counterfeiting cmos chips for decades already, and dram is not as complex as people like to assume.
Neuromorphic computing will likely kick over the LLM sand pile at some point, and all that discounted hardware will need re-homed. We can wait for the bubble to run its course, and actual investors realize they were conned. =3
I don't see a lot of work going on in neuromorphic - there was some work at Intel, IIRC. Not saying you're wrong, but just wondering where you think it's going to come from?
Will likely evolve like any regular biological system, and consume translated LLM weight sets into its initial training condition 3D propagation structure.
The speed at which this occurs will likely initially be measured in weeks due to slower growth state writes, but once bootstrapped the GC is self-propagating.
I normally don't like to speculate, but the barrier to entry would actually be much lower than traditional silicon fabrication processes. It was an old idea from science fiction, that until recently was highly impractical. Asimov was likely wrong about the physical process, but not about how it is made.

Due to theoretical constant morphological changes under GC, one must acknowledge the inherent lack of safety such systems would pose. Have a nice day. =3
On the academic side of things there's a steady drip of papers on things like spiking neutral networks so I'd say the general theme is being explored.
I figure if a breakthrough happens it will be overnight just like what happened with transformers.
It's notable in comparison that all the deadly organics lived together in an unlocked cupboard (vented OFC). I think the only thing I ever saw treated as more of a pariah than HF were radioactive isotopes. Those generally get an entire dedicated room with restricted entry and a tedious mandatory cleaning procedure.

Now, perhaps this chemist meant that no chemist in their right mind would physically touch HF--in that case, I agree completely!
It sure is, if you ignore the fact that you have to have a factory to make it where one of the *nicest* things around is the fucking hydrofluoric acid, and most of the rest will kill you instantly in trace amounts.
The propane is going to get burnt anyway. May as well extract some useful work from it, and when you run a car off it they become ultra low emission.
But in practical terms the Z80 was a 4 um process node so unless you're willing to go back to the proverbial stone age it seems like you need semiconductors and lithography.
I get my DRAM needs at the RAM ranch.
