Perplexity's official account demoed an AI-written and AI-produced five-minute film explaining the full chip fabrication process, drawing on 13 technical references from ASML, Intel, TSMC, Cadence, SkyWater, and IEEE Spectrum.

CEO Arav Srinivas framed it as a learning shift: access to experts is no longer a bottleneck — you can ask AI to make a 5-minute video to learn anything. The film also explains why "3nm" doesn't mean what it sounds like.
