Matforge (@matforge_) is building AI scientists to discover new materials for the semiconductor industry. The semiconductor industry needs better materials to bring back Moore’s Law, but finding novel materials today takes 10+ years of lab work. Matforge wants to accelerate this process. Congrats on the launch, Advaith Sridhar &... show more

Radical AI is redefining the boundaries of materials science. As we prepare to open a 45,000-square-foot lab in the Brooklyn Navy Yard, we’re set to even further accelerate the discovery of next-generation materials that will shape our future. Thank you Nathan Labenz for inviting Joseph Krause and JC to share how Radical is pursuing the holy grail of materials science intelligence.

Fox: The tariffs, 10% for lumber, 25% for cabinets, vanities, upholstered furniture. On January 1st, the tariff for cabinets and vanities increase to 50%, all the rest of the furniture to 30%. The cost of building materials has increased 34%. There is a concern that this is not going to be great for the home buying industry

#WATCH | Delhi | SEMICON India 2026 | President of the Semiconductor Products Group at Applied Materials, Prabhu Raja says, "Today we are announcing Applied Materials India Vision 2035 - A US$5 billion investment for the next decade to accelerate and integrate India's semiconductor ecosystem into the global value chain... It has a three-pillar approach: one, deepen our R&D in India; two, accelerate the ecosystem in India; three, grow future talent in India. The first, deepening our R&D in India applied was among the first to establish a semiconductor engineering capability centre. In 2024, we ordered India's first 300-millimetre lab. Today, we are committing to a new 140-acre advanced semiconductor research park, bringing together cleanroom capabilities, engineering expertise, and collaborative R&D with customers and suppliers on one side. Second, accelerate the ecosystem in India. Inventions done here must scale globally. By 2035, we aim to grow our India-based supply chain capacity 10 times, creating opportunities for Indian suppliers and bringing global suppliers here..." (Source: DD)

Been 9 years in the industry. This is a small glimpse of what I have to show for it. Much more to come. Not materials, that’s just the surface. The underlying foundations which no one sees but they keep getting stronger.

Nvidia $NVDA CEO, Jensen Huang, on if the semiconductor industry is due for a bust: "No, not for a while. This time is different because this is not demand driven, it is not seasonal...meaning seasonal demand driven. This is industrially driven, meaning the fundamental technology of computers is changing. We need a whole new layer of infrastructure in the world. We have energy, internet, roads, railroads, we now need the intelligence layer built on top of all of that and this layer needs chips. I believe we need our semiconductor industry to be somewhere between 5-10x larger than it is over the course of the next 10 years. It is way too small today, which is the reason why memory is in such shortage, storage is in such shortage, optical interconnects are short, packaging is short, and TSMC foundry chips are short. Everything is in such short supply because it is not a cyclical nature. It is fundamental infrastructure related. The whole industry is short." According to the WSTS, the semiconductor industry is projected to be $1.5 trillion in 2026. 5-10x larger puts it at $7.5 trillion to $15 trillion. Via Axios

#WATCH | Delhi: On SEMICON India 2026, Gati Shakti Vishwavidyalaya Vice Chancellor Prof. Manoj Choudhary says, "While ISM 2.0 was announced a few days back, today PM Modi launched SEMICON India 2026. He highlighted that ISM 2.0, with an allocation of ₹1.27 lakh crore, focuses on six important pillars of the entire semiconductor manufacturing spectrum, ranging from chip design to equipment and materials, chemicals and gases, semiconductor fabs and compound semiconductors, to focusing on advanced R&D in semiconductor manufacturing and new talent development to the tune of 1 lakh new semiconductor professionals. This is a very significant step up from what we achieved under ISM 1.0." He adds, "Under ISM 1.0, with a ₹76,000 crore allocation, we ended up establishing 12 semiconductor units in the country with a total investment of ₹1.64 lakh crore. The great thing is that out of those 12 semiconductor plants announced during that phase, five are already under commercial production, which is a massive achievement for the country. Today's announcement shall further strengthen India's semiconductor manufacturing ecosystem..."

#WATCH | The Union Cabinet chaired by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi has approved the Semicon 2.0 for the development of India's semiconductor design and manufacturing ecosystem, with a total budget outlay of Rs.1,27,500 crore. Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw says, "We all know that the semiconductor industry is foundational; semiconductor chips are essential to virtually all modern manufacturing, whether it is the mobile phone or camera, household appliances like fridges, TVs, and ACs, vehicles like scooters, cars, and trains, or even missiles. Electronics has emerged as a major sector in its own right, and this initiative now covers the entire electronics value chain. Consider the electronics value chain: it begins with silicon ingots made from raw earth materials. From there, ingots are sliced into bare wafers, which then undergo fabrication. Fabrication is an incredibly intricate process. To understand fabrication, imagine writing your name on your fingernail—that is certainly possible, but imagine being asked to write the entire Ramayana or Mahabharata on that same fingernail. That level of precision and minute detail is exactly what the fabrication process entails. The fabricated wafer/semiconductor fab stage shown in the second block represents a highly complex process..."
