What is Moore's Law?

Some people argue that Moore's law is an economic trap, and I was very skeptical.

It's true that Moore's law is not just about technical aspects...
Still, I think the original claims of Moore's Law are technical.
I think that economic things are things that are combined with other sizes of economy. How about that?

For example, I've seen arguing that Apple understands Moore's law the most, or ARM has moved Moore's laws forward....
I couldn't understand it because it didn't make sense

Maybe that's the case when it comes to mass production, but I think it's a different direction from Moore's law.

We are waiting for your opinion

This kind of It was the first time I've seen a claim about Moore's law.
I couldn't believe my eyes

Moore’s Law Wiki - Semiwiki

Overview Moore’s Law is an empirical observation stating that the number of transistors on a microchip doubles approximately every two years, leading to exponential improvements in computing performance, efficiency, and cost per function. It has been a guiding principle for the semiconductor...

In my interpretation, I feel that Moore's law has become something that has many meanings over time.

Moore's laws are by no means a single company being a leader. At least I think the semiconductor industry itself is pulling the laws of Moore.

After all, the above-mentioned claim that I saw was quite strange and confusing.
 
Come to think of it, in the paper of Moore, the origin that became the law of Moore, foreseen the occurrence of chiplets.

It is in the article of Gordon Moore published on April 19, 1965, Vol.38, No. 8, Electronics.
 
Moore's Law is more important than most people believe.
The key is to align the whole industry in synchronizing technological development.
Materials, EDA tools, pricing, performance, cost, marketing, and etc all have a marketing expection.
It's very much like a free-and-rough future index.

except that future Index has slowed down if there is only TSMC left. If Intel get's out i would mark it as the end of Moore's law
