It seems that I am in the M5 Computer chip it looks very vibrant here and very futuristic and everything else look so big compared too when my 5’4 tail looks at it its like a big the transistors are very large and dense I really did not expect this too look like this

In the video, Marques points out that transistors are shrinking down to the atomic level. In 1948, transistors sizes varied from about the size of a shoelace tip, to about the size of a large paper clip. Now, in 2026, transistors sizes very from 15-25 atoms to molecules.

In a modern iPhone, a chip has millions of transistors. in order for old transistors to fit in a iPhone, the phone would have to be about the size of the state of New Jersey. The reason for this is because Moore’s Law states that technology shrinks about every 2 years. That means technology has shrunk about 39 times since the first computer transistors were created.

If transistors to eventually reach the atomic level, the device wont work properly and could result in electron leakage. The tech community continuously shrinks transistors so they can fit more of them inside of a chip. More transistors, means faster and more powerful computing. Well when is it going to be enough? When will the tech community stop shrinking transistors? According to my research, if a transistor is only a few atoms long, it could result in quantum effects and leakage. The transistors are already 15-25 atoms long. If they keep shrinking them, in a few years, they will be prone to electron leakage, quantum effects, and much much more.

Today was a very eventful day, I was drinking apple juice while I was on my computer watching “Paw Patrol” and before I could close my eyes to enjoy my juice, I shrank down to 20 nanometers tall and fell right into my new M5 computer chip, but I really wasn’t mad about shrinking. I was only worried about where my juice had went. That is besides the point though, let me tell you all about my experience.

So first I had seen so many transistors around me. If I had an an exact estimate, It would be about nineteen-million of them, and they also looked a alot bigger then I expected, but that’s pretty obvious because, who could’ve known that I was going to shrink today? That doesn’t matter right now though, I just wanted my juice back, but I couldn’t, so I decided to explore some more things.

The photolithography used in the middle of this chip was quite impeccable though. It felt like I was literally in my prime, sitting in the sun in the summer. I knew that it felt warm because the chip was using light to transfer geometric patterns from a photomask to photoresist on a substrate. I learned about some of these things from past research. Yeah, I do more than just drink juice and watch Paw Patrol.

Now last but not least, the atoms I seen were much like the video said,” the size of marbles.” I would compare them to like little bottle caps. These Items that were in my chip were bigger when I shrank down, but when I shrank down I really started to appreciate the work that was put into making my computer.

Shortly after I admitted that I appreciated the hard work that was spent on the computer, I launched out of the chip and grew back to my normal size, and all of my stuff was there. I had decided to drink my apple juice away from my computer, due to the fact that I appreciated the work the technologists put in and did not want to mess it up. Later in time I made a YouTube video about my experience, and warned them not to take the hard work done on their computers for granted or they might, “Shrink Before They Blink.”

In the video it talks about the evolution of transistors. Transistors were once a big block. Now they are microscopic and have billions to collaborate in one singular device. This is an example of how much work people put in to electronics. We are under a law called “Moore’s Law”. Moore’s law basically is the number of transistor chips doubling every 2 years.

If technology keeps shrinking every 2 years, it’ll be to hard to see. Not only will the transistors shrink; They will double. That will make the process really difficult to make more electronics. It might get so small to the point where not even man made machines can make them. When the Moore’s law ends laptops might be the size of phones and phones might be like the futuristic watches you see on movies.

Moore’s law really left a high impact on people. I feel like even when transistors are to small to handle, people will still find a way to continue to make them smaller and double the amount even when they are microscopic.

We are basically shrinking transistors down to the atomic level they might get shrunken even more in the future we don’t know yet i guess we will have to wait and see. Moore’s law basically explains that  that the number of transistors on a microchip doubles approximately every two years that’s mean’s that’s around 20-30 doubling and they’ve been doing it for 61 years so that’s a lot but the problem were running in to or the question the people are asking is what happens when u can’t make it any smaller? cause devices are getting smaller and smaller every 2 years and what will happen once we cant make it any smaller well what would happen is increased manufacturing costs and severe heat management issues and quantum-level electron leakage.this is bad for all company’s who use they don’t what would happen or the bad things that could happen like threatens the sustainability and affordability of future computing technology which could be potentially bad but I think what will happen in the future or what computers will look lie is that will will try to keep doing it even if they cant and if Moore’s law ends someone will probably create something new something more developed to help keep us going but most likely i do feel they will figure something out and if they don’t that just might be end of technology.

Being about 20 nanometers tall, the world around you looks more larger. From the eyes that I have, everything is about the size of mountains. Transistors have transitioned from flat two-dimensional shapes into three-dimensional structures commonly known as FinFETs (Fin Field-Effect Transistors), which resemble tiny fins or needles standing vertically on the silicon wafer.

At this point, a single atoms is the size of a marble. Which would be about (9 mm or .35 inches), that is equivalent to a 6 foot adult. Your ”giant” world is looking different by now. From where you are standing, a single bacteria is now a 164-foot tall skyscraper. To us universes might as big as a galaxy, or even bigger.

The evolution of computers has made a drastic change since the 1940s.The size of computers from the 1940s were the size of a room. Every computer has a chip with transistors inside of it. The average computer from today has billions of transistors in its chip. Which is about the same amount of stars in our galaxy. A single transistor from the 1940s was roughly a centimeter long.

Transistors have shrunk tremendously since back in the day. Transistors now are 20-70 atoms wide. That is smaller than bacteria. That is beyond microscopic. Billions can fit on a chip smaller than a fingernail.

As I shrink down to 20 nanometers tall, I first find the M5 in the computer and while finding it there are lot of BIG objects that I had on my desk 1: banana,2: water droplet 3: rice. which was really BIG and fascinating, and I make to the M5 which looking at it. was like looking at a tile on the floor. so, I shrink some more and go inside of the M5 everything in there was very tall compared to my size it felt like I could live here. there was lots and LOTS of bacteria in there and it was interesting to see that up close with my own eyes. Another thing that I saw was the transistors scales which was very BIG AND TALL. standing in the midst of the of all this felt weird and abnormal. like feeling really time you can kind of see. but luckily, I have this tech gear to keep me safe from any bad. so, I can see just fine. And seeing atoms for the first time was very cool.

I woke up on my computer this morning ad not just my face laying down on the keys, I woke up on a key bind of my computer so small I could feel the vents of the computer blowing. I had been shrunk somehow and was stranded with no idea where I was. I had o directions, no food, no water, and no way to figure out how to grow back to normal size. I had saw dust and food and all kind of thigs on my computer. I woke up thirsty ad starving, thinking of how I didn’t know which I would die first of, I remembered a bowl of cereal next to my computer so it took me 2 hours nd then some to reach that bowl ad forgetting I couldn’t swim I dived in. I was drowning in milk luckily a piece of cereal floated by and I grabbed on to it, soaked in milk I took a bite of the oversized cereal and climbed out of the bowl back to the computer.

I was sitting o the keys of the computer, thinking of how to get out o this, so i decided to make the most, ” I always wanted to see the inside of a computer.” so I walked in to the grooves of the computer and looked around I saw chips and all types of tech things I couldn’t name. I was amazed on how many things it took to make the thing I barley use regularly, I was so much more appreciative on my computer no because of how many thigs i seen in my computer. I could see atoms and feel the air, even tho i could barley see. evreything was so beautiful

I feel like the government using AI for autonomous weapons is a bad idea, because, when the weapons shoot, they will most likely slip up and wont tell between a enemy soldier or a civilian in the crossfire. AI doesn’t have feelings or emotions like humans do, they don’t care who they hurt or what they do, they just do what they’re programmed to do. Imagine if a robot or an self-controlled weapon comes across a child in the war and they were told to kill everyone they come across, it would shoot it, because it doesn’t have feelings or emotions, unlike a human soldier, nine times out of ten they are going to spare the child because we have emotions. Now there are a percent of soldiers that will shoot without hesitation and that is what the army wants but imagine if that was you or your child, innocent or in the wrong place at the wrong time and was shot, no chance, no hesitation. That’s what our army is trying to do. AI is not ready for fully autonomous weapons just yet but at the rate its going, its definitely going to come soon. Being spied on by the government is a invasion of privacy and is breaking laws of state that we fought so much for. AI now makes generated photos and videos from what we post online, imagine what they could do with cameras or drones spying on our everyday lives. They could use it as leverage or even if a cop shoots a civilian or is wrong of judgement or racist and profiles black people or any different race, AI could cover for them by editing the body cam or video to cover the cop so they can keep they’re job. The government wants to use AI before it is ready and wants to do whatever they want with the product. There is no telling what the government might do with this kind of technology.
