Machine learning and AI in chip design is such a sprawling field that I started to lose myself in all the research. So I figured to just go into a recent breakthrough in the chip design field: Floorplanning.

Google has been applying the same AI prowess that allowed them to badly beat the best Go masters to this obscure, but important sub-category of the field.
