Semiconductor manufacturing is the most sophisticated, unforgiving high volume production technology that has ever been done successfully. You need a lot of practice. The more chips that TSMC makes, the better it gets at it.

In this video, I want to talk about how a fab like TSMC improves their operations. How they think about yield, speed up throughput, and in general get better at wafer fabrication.
