APPLE M5 CHIP'S DUAL-USE DESIGN WILL POWER FUTURE MACS AND AI SERVERS

Apple will reportedly use a more advanced System on Integrated Chip (SoIC) technology for its M5 chips. SoIC technology allows for the stacking of chips in a three-dimensional structure. It provides better electrical performance and thermal management compared to traditional two-dimensional chip designs. Apple intends to start mass producing the chips in 2025 and 2026 for new Macs and AI cloud servers. The M5's dual-use design is believed to be part of Apple's plans to vertically integrate its supply chain for AI functionality across computers, cloud servers, and software.

AGAINST INNOVATION TOKENS

The idea of using innovation tokens to identify which technologies are innovative implies that everyone knows which technologies are innovative. It also assumes that innovative technologies are inherently costly and that their supply should be restricted. This model is reactionary and borders on anti-intellectualism. It is better to look at whether using a particular technology will introduce a boundary between two different technologies with different conceptual models.
