"the signal state transitions were established at less than 20 ps, which is comparable to the bandwidth limit of the oscilloscope utilized at 50 GHz. [...] the initial rise time constant may be shorter than the measurement limits of the oscilloscope."
Oh.. ohhh… you threatened Canada with annexation too?
Oh boy.
Shorter wavelengths means higher frequencies, "number go up" = more data per second.
This is press release language though, it could mean anything.
"boosts data transmission and data processing speed, especially in AI applications"
How is this better for "AI" than it would be for any other general computing task? Looks like the AI-crazed execs had a go at this press release.
Wasn't that long ago, when I would see the word "blockchain," at least once, in every pitch deck.
