    Yeah, man, Bezos has tens of billions, if not hundreds! He could support the development of something that breaks the fundamental rules of physics EASILY!

      He can go develop me a liquid nitro cooling setup.

      Use so many fans he can power a wind farm

      Shove his servers up his bum

      Honesly i’m fine with any of the above

  I doubt a microchip that doesn’t need cooling, while still calculating reasonably fast, is possible.

    It’s possible if you make it a macrochip instead of a microchip.

  Computers use electricity to do math. The more electricity you have, the more math you can do. In order to do the math, the electricity is handled in a way that outputs heat. Unfortunately, the most reliable, cost effective and plentiful materials that allow electricity to do a lot of math also get heavily impacted by heat.

    modern cpus has an energy density on par with nuclear power plant cores.

    they need cooling, money cant break physics.
