Advanced compute without advanced optics is a bottleneck. And this is the team to fix it. They make hardware seem easy ... from lasers for Starlink data interconnect to next-gen optical transceivers for data centers to their future ambition to reinvigorate American photonics

high speed optical connections will be handy for data centres; Microsoft Research is experimenting in using something similar for an analog computer that can run a neural network really fast; the market for both is a couple of years off though [embedded post]
