The AI smartphone revolution is still in its early stages but, as the technology matures, they will likely become the only smartphones we know.

Evidence keeps adding up that AI is a potential alternative. Now another study concludes that the AI method of drug discovery is up to 250 times more efficient than the traditional method.

The demand for EDA software is anticipated to maintain robust growth, with double-digit increases expected to continue throughout the decade as the major semiconductor companies (see list here) begin to require, and acquire, custom-designed chips for their new products.

The Cloud Computing SaaS Portfolio was up 2.5% this week but went down 6.0% during the month of April, is now down 5.4% YTD.

As goes January, so goes the year...This is a catchy market adage that means how the market ends in January typically predicts how the market will perform for the year. The January Barometer, as it’s called, has correctly predicted the S&P 500’s performance for the remainder of the year 75% of the time since 1945. That being said,, however, I don’t put much stock in market adages. Let me explain.

Choosing the perfect car can feel like a maze, but don’t worry – we’ve navigated through the dizzying array of options to bring you the ultimate guide to the best cars of 2024. Here are a few things we considered:

Specialty microprocessors that enabled AI were In just 3% of all smartphones in 2017 but by 2020 more than 33% of the world’s 3 billion smartphones were equipped with processors conducting trillions of operations quickly and with less power - and AI is poised to play an even greater role in our smartphones in 2024 and beyond.

There is a significant rise in demand for specialized AI applications, which necessitate the creation of tailored AI chips and this shift has brought Electronic Design Automation (EDA) software to the forefront. Let’s delve into what EDA software is, its projected market growth, and the companies that are likely to benefit from this industry evolution.

In many ways, AI parallels the internet. The two are both productivity game-changers. Like the internet, AI will allow us to do things faster, better, and cheaper. Over the next 20 years, AI will unequivocally change society, just like the internet has over the past 20 years. 

Some folks like to think of artificial intelligence (AI) as a bubble - a long line of failed tech trends, like we’ve seen thus far with NFTs, the metaverse, and several cryptocurrencies - but I strongly disagree with those pundits and so does Wall Street’s richest CEO.
