    You know there are simpler custom chips too right?

    That said, it sounds a bit like bullshit to me too.

      Totally but if we’re talking about simple custom chips, my point still stands as there is nothing to compare a custom chip to and the simplicity doesn’t seem to necessitate a LLM to map out.

        That doesn’t follow at all…

        the simplicity doesn’t seem to necessitate a LLM to map out.

        So are you saying that if something is so simple that you could do it in a week, then it isn’t worth using a tool that would get it done in 4 days?

        I mean, no that doesn’t necessitate use of a LLM. But by that logic, doing math never necessitates the use of a calculator, just do it on paper. Sure, you could…

          I’m saying there are simple and difficult chips to map out and the simple ones shouldn’t need this by virtue of being simple.

          Your analogy of using a computerized tool to complete a task doesn’t really hold as the math you use a calculator for wouldn’t be considered “simple math.”

            No, the analogy is fine. If you have a task (math in the previous example) that takes some amount of time (doesn’t matter how much), is it worth using a tool (calculator) that makes it faster?

            That was the analogy.
