"Silicon Co-Design" went from 1k to 10k followers on X in a day and #6# rising in technology on Substack! I cover the technical foundations of the underlying subsystems of AI Infra from the bottom-up, including advanced packaging, high speed optical communications, mixed-signal, power, and memory. Up until this point, I self-funded this self-education journey by travelling to flagship technical conferences (ISSCC, DesignCon, APEC, ECTC, DAC, and Hot Chips), sitting in rooms full of domain-specific experts, walking the expo floors, and learning from grad students at poster sessions. It has been a humbling journey for sure and it has not been easy to walk into these conferences without an affiliation and not feel any sense of reward. I want to thank everyone who has been with me from the beginning. Thanks @vikramskr for getting the ground running with your research and @bookwormengr on X for recently reposting my OpenAI's Jalapeno post that got me from 1k to 10k X followers.
