Quote to Note: More Computing Power!
January 27, 2018
I read “Microsoft Boss: World Needs More Computing Power.” The idea is a variant upon “Technology will solve our problems.” I noted this passage in the article:
The world is rapidly “running out of computing capacity”, the head of tech giant Microsoft has warned.
He allegedly revealed:
“Moore’s Law is kinda running out of steam,” Mr Nadella told assembled delegates, referring to the maxim that the power of computer chips doubles every two years.
Yep, “kinda.” Hip World Economic Forum lingo.
