As we look towards 2024, it is predicted that advancements in Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) could reach significant milestones. AGI refers to a level of artificial intelligence that can understand, learn, and apply knowledge across a range of tasks, equivalent to the cognitive abilities of a human. Should AGI become a reality, its implications for the semiconductor industry could be profound.

The semiconductor industry would likely experience exponential growth, driven by the increased demand for powerful and efficient chips capable of supporting AGI systems. The proliferation of devices connected to the Internet of Things (IoT) will require advanced semiconductors to process vast quantities of data quickly and reliably.

At the same time, the advent of AGI will necessitate a dramatic escalation in cybersecurity measures. As systems become smarter and more autonomous, the potential for sophisticated cyber threats grows. The industry will need to adopt robust post-quantum cryptography standards to protect against threats that can exploit the vulnerabilities of classical encryption methods in a world where quantum computing is becoming more accessible.

In essence, the semiconductor industry could well be at the heart of this technological revolution, providing the essential components that drive AGI systems while also innovating at the forefront of cybersecurity to protect the vast networks these systems will operate within.
