At the risk of getting roughed up in the replies...
I think AI will be the missing key. The ability to micromanage millions of inputs at once and respond with control corrections in microseconds can push this over the top. I've read of some progress on this front already.
I don't think it'll be LLMs (which is what a lot of people jump to when you mention "AI"), they have much higher latencies than microseconds. It will be AI of some sort, but probably won't be considered AI due to the AI effect:
LLMs might be useful for researchers diving down a particular research/experiment rabbit hole.
Machine Learning in this case instead of LLMs. Fields like microbiology have been seeing waves of discoveries with the latest ML approaches.
Is there a difference between a neural net and ml?
ML includes other models like random forest in addition to neural nets.
Neural nets aren’t the only way to do ML. They are, however, by far the most popular.
Nooooo, do you really think we'll need a computer to run it? You don't say, and I thought we'd just use one of the big 1920s lever boards with lots of Frankenstein style switches and big manual valves and just work really really fast.
It's hilarious that you're phrasing as if the software is the problem, and the gigantic, multi billion dollar facility that is required to do it.
