The world is running on bits and bytes, but it stands on atoms.
Both are equally important, but as Peter Thiel depicted: “We are living in a world where we built a Star Trek computer but we didn’t work so much on other parts”. You can have a supercomputers but without a ship, you will get nowhere.
More startups (or innovations) should come in hardware space or blend between software and hardware in order to achieve the same level of advancement like in computer science.
More collaboration between hardware and software start-ups/sciences are needed, in order to make “Star Trek ship”.
