Moore's law
observation on the growth of integrated circuit capacity
AI overview
Moore's law is the observation that the number of transistors on integrated circuits tends to double roughly every two years, allowing chips to become more powerful and capable over time. This matters because it has helped predict and drive progress in computing technology for decades, making devices faster and more advanced.

A semi-log plot of transistor counts for microprocessors against dates of introduction, nearly doubling every two years
Moore's law is the observation that the number of transistors in an integrated circuit (IC) doubles about every two years, with minimal increase in cost. Despite the name, Moore's law describes an empirical relationship, not a scientific law. This type of observation, the experience curve effect, quantifies efficiency gains from learned experience in production.
