For this project, you will be exploring the developments in material science that have allowed computers to become so fast. Prepare a PowerPoint presentation of 10-12 slides (not including Title and Reference slides) and include a minimum of 3 images. Please address the following:
- What are the 3 essential properties of every material?
- New materials often lead to new technologies that change society. Describe how silicon-based semiconductors revolutionized computing.
- What are microchips? How are they related to integrated circuits?
- One of the pressing questions about the increasing ability of computers to quickly process large amounts of information is whether a computer can be built that is considered “alive” or “conscious.” What is artificial intelligence?
