it doesn't matter how fast the computing part of a chip is
if it has to wait for the memory part of the chip to transfer data
and those wait times seem short at a human time scale
but are long in a transistor time scale
and those wait times occur often as the chip works
which is what holds computing performance back
so that one part of the chip is computing transistors
and the other part is memory transistors
in a many core cpu
each core could have its own cache
but that also means many small pieces of cache
which could be too little cache for some workloads
such as ai, gaming or supercomputing
so data transfer wait times that occur often and repeatedly
and too many transistors that are used for cache memory
while fewer transistors do computing
make chips slow
which holds back every company that rely on computing devices
and that slows down the economy in every country
but if each transistor that does the computing in the cpu
together forms patterns
and those patterns store data
then that would replace the cache
which would mean more computing power
and more memory
the transistors that do the computing in a cpu
constantly switch between on and off
so the memory patterns would be shimmering
from transistors switching between on and off while they compute
so it wouldn't matter if the transistors in those patterns
are sometimes on or off
since the pattern is the storage unit
and later that data is stored on the hard drive
so that the data remains if the computer is turned off
so researchers don't need to develop some memristor cpu combo
instead normal transistors could be used
but they would have to be used differently
possibly with some software
controlling the memory patterns of the transistors
transistor pattern storage would make transfer of data
from the memory part of the chip
to the computing part of the chip
nearly instantaneous
because the memory is stored as memory patterns
on the transistors that do the computing
which would make those chips extremely fast
without needing to develop a new chip technology
so data transfer that is nearly instantaneous within the chip
and almost all the transistors of the cpu would do computing
while patterns of those transistors store data
then that would be truly next gen
