GPT-4: Researchers at New York State University have successfully designed and manufactured a semiconductor chip using plain English and AI language model ChatGPT, bypassing the need for a hardware definition language. The chip, an 8-bit accumulator-based microprocessor architecture, demonstrates the potential for AI to streamline the chip design process, reduce human-induced errors, and shorten time to market. However, concerns arise regarding the elimination of hardware description language fluency and the potential vulnerabilities of relying on AI-generated designs.
