Imagine a future where light, not electricity, powers the devices we use daily. This article explores the potential of light-based technology to revolutionize the way we power and operate electronic devices, especially in the context of AI development. As traditional electronics face limitations due to heat generation and speed plateaus, optical technologies, such as optical neural networks, enable faster and more energy-efficient data processing. The article delves into cutting-edge research, like AI-driven designs for optical devices, and how this synergy between AI and optics could pave the way for groundbreaking advancements to ultimately replace conventional electronic components.

In this exploration of cultural contrasts, I explore the stark differences between mobile app development in Hong Kong and the United States and reflect on the overall broader cultural identities. Raised in America but native to Hong Kong, I uncover how Hong Kong's apps, filled with vibrant yet cluttered designs, struggle to meet user needs compared to the streamlined, minimalist approach of American apps. As Hong Kong's global influence wanes, the future of Hong Kong is in question about the city's identity and future in the digital age.
