Scaling use of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence in Semiconductor Industry
Abstract:
The semiconductor industry stands at a technological inflection point where artificial intelligence and machine learning offer transformative potential across the entire value chain. This article examines the strategic implementation of AI/ML technologies throughout semiconductor design, manufacturing, quality control, and supply chain operations. Drawing from industry experience spanning multiple semiconductor sectors, it explores how intelligent systems optimize chip design processes, enhance fabrication yields, revolutionize defect detection methodologies, and create resilient supply networks. While acknowledging implementation challenges related to data infrastructure, computational requirements, and specialized talent acquisition, integrating these advanced technologies presents a clear pathway toward addressing modern semiconductor development and production's increasing complexity and performance demands.
