Cost reductions, he says, are associated with anticipated yield improvements, improved economies of scale, die shrinks, new testing efficiencies and lower cost packaging and wafers.
Still, egos rarely seem bruised, and DiDonato's comments often yield improvements.
Engines are an important element, since they can yield improvements in fuel economy and reductions in carbon emissions.
The conclusion: the games may yield improvements in the narrow task being trained, but this does not transfer to broader skills like the ability to read or do arithmetic, or to other measures of intelligence.
"Cost reductions and yield improvements (helped by a stronger revenue environment and a reduction in capacity growth in the coming years) should allow earnings per share to rise strongly," he said.
How big were those yield improvements?
Replacement of current technologies requires significant product yield improvements.
This point doesn't trivialize incremental improvements, especially since those 2x yield improvements are rare, perhaps once-in-a-generation discoveries.
These mechanisms reduce unnecessary traffic and yield improvements over other pubsub schemes.
Agricultural output growth should from now on depend on yield improvements rather than land expansion.
These GNS4-overexpressing lines also showed significant biomass and grain yield improvements (Fig. 8i, j).
