I don’t think decades, but some years for sure.

It’s simular translation from Davos, the translater even changed their turn at the middle of the discourse (~10 min each). You can find the Video also in Chinese original, if you prefer it or with subtitles in your lenguage without sound.

Industrial diamonds made with almost everything which contains Carbon.

Silicon isn’t the cheapest, sand is. The manufacturing price of the silice mono crystal is high and very similar of that from mono crystal fabrication of any other substance. Artificial diamonds as raw material isn’t much more expensive, used in the industry since a long time, manufactured in mass for cutting tools, drills, abrasive material…, nothing to do with the ones for jewelery.

Wom’t make a difference with any current OS, none of those would work with the new arquitecture, way different from the current one. One thing is the new hardware and another is the current lack of any soft or OS for it. Not even DOOM would run in it. Maybe in one or two years it would make sense to change your PC.

Another alternative to silice are diamonds, there the chips are with the same arquitecture as those from silice, but with the advantage that they support much more heat to the point that they don’t even need refrigeration, apart the electric apabilities of diamond is way better as those from silice, that permits a way higher speed and stability. The price isn’t much higher as the one from normal chips with sythetic diamonds. They are already in use, even with manufactories in Spain.

Yes, it’s like saying: Either you do business with me or I shoot myself in the knee. Trading with China and others, nobody needs the USA anymore.
