There’s a Class 100 semiconductor cleanroom inside this backyard shed.

    I saw this today. I am gonna be watching this mans journey with great interest. The last litho channel I saw was at the level of transistor density of the 80s. Found it! the Z2 www.youtube.com/watch?v=IS5ycm7VfXg

    Does anyone know what the current best “youtuber” cpu is?

    There was someone who wrote up a bootstrapping guide for technology assuming an apocalypse sent us back to sticks and stones. I think that guide went much further back on the level of lithography you could meaningfully get to while restarting tech.

    I am curious what size features this guy can create in his lab.

      I’m guessing he can’t really do much of a chip per se. Sounds more like he can do only base components.

        There are other YouTubers who have managed to make meaningful chips (on the order of 1000 transistors) out of basically a garage setup with salvaged and/or improvised equipment. I would be shocked if this guy can’t do better than that with his much more sophisticated setup.

    AI was clearly used to write the script for this video. That’s super disappointing, and I hope AI wasn’t used to generate any other part of this.

    For example, at 1:27:

    You don’t just walk into the cleanroom, you transition into it.

    Classic bizarre LLM style. I’m not going to support any creator on Patreon who can’t even be bothered to use their own words to communicate.

      Thank you for saying it. I have seen this on YouTube more and more and I thought I was going crazy. Videos that seems normal, done by the person and narrated by them but the script was was full of this “not just X, Y” type of pattern, and I was like “man if you gonna bother to record your narration why not at least fix the obvious LLM vibe of the text”. Like, if you gonna use AI and try to be sneak about it why not so it right. It is so middle of the road, like, not fully automated AI slop, but also not fully your creation. I question if not other parts were IA also, like the narration is now so good that I can’t pick it up, specially if not my native language. In any case, it is a shame, it like ruins all the effort the creator put elsewhere.

        This was just the first time it felt important enough to comment. I was really excited by the premise of the video and really disappointed to find see evidence of AI. Because it’s sneaky and good at approximating human speech, I thought it was worthwhile pointing that out so that others who may have missed it can properly evaluate this creator’s effort and expertise.

      I do not agree that it’s bizarre given what was happening in the video. You’re failing a reverse turing test.

        See the “Em-Dash Pivot” here. The “Not just X – Y” is a common LLM tic. Walk over to your nearest vibe coded slopware website for plenty of examples.

        And it is bizarre. Who describes gowning up to enter a clean room as “transitioning” into it? Why the extra verbal flair right there, of all places? A human reserves that kind of emphatic phrase for something actually important, not the difference between walking into a room and “”””transitioning”””” into it, whatever that is supposed to mean.

      Someone is not familiar with cleanrooms
