Yesterday I had the great pleasure to attend a documentary screening and panel session where Prof. #FredericoFaggin was the guest of honour. This was organised by the #Italian Luxembourg Chamber of Commmerce and introduced by the Italian Ambassador to #Luxembourg. #Faggin invented the #microprocessor and designed the #4004 #8008 #8080 #z80 and later on via #synaptics #touchscreens and #touchpads .He is a true #pioneer

@404mediaco Federico #Faggin agrees that #LLM/#AI will never be conscious.
I still wonder if we have understood what consciousness actually is

Paolo Redaelli Apr 23

Just attended a speech of Federico #Faggin organized by Giancarlo #Pallavicini's Foundation in #Desio "can #ai have consciousness?".
I bet no one of the ~200 people listening, including me, had even a slight actual understanding of what he was actually saying. I just understood that his knowledge of physics is so vastly beyond mine that I just have some hints of what he was actually explaining: my knowledge of physics is a couple of step behind those required to start understanding him!

Federico Faggin’s Career Leading to the Design of the Intel 4004

@haitchfive Jun 12, 2024

There is something of an artistic quality in Federico Faggin's design of the Fairchild 3708 (1968), the world's first integrated circuit using SGT (Silicon Gate Technology).
