MIT scientists develop transistor with nanosecond switching and billion-cycle durability

The researchers say it "could change the world"
In a nutshell: Back in 2021, a team from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology made waves by creating an entirely new type of ferroelectric material. Now, those same researchers have one-upped themselves by using that substance to build a transistor that utterly smokes the conventional chips powering today's gadgets – with nanosecond switching speeds and incredible durability.

Intel's crashing CPU crisis deepens as more models are affected than originally thought

The issue extends beyond enthusiast chips, hinting at a more complex root cause
A hot potato: Intel probably thought the worst was behind them after the company identified the source of the instability surrounding its 13th- and 14th-gen CPUs and promised a patch to address the issue. But new reports say that the patch won't resolve the problems for processors already experiencing crashes. Even worse, whatever the problem is, it affects a broader range of models than previously assumed.
