DID YOU KNOW?Could we have foreseen?Federico Faggin, the design and development team leader for the world's first microprocessor 40 years ago, said he didn't foresee the impact on society and work that the microprocessor would have and that he was helping to create. Having worked for Fairchild Semiconductor in the late 1960s, Faggin went on to Intel where he helped to work on the Intel 4004, the first commercially available microprocessor. "The way it has transformed our lives was just unthinkable 40 years ago," Faggin stated. For him, the most important development to stem from the creation is the smartphone: "People who don't even know how to read and write know how to use a cellphone. You need a high level of intelligence inside the telephone to switch frequencies and allow mass utilization of the frequencies. You could not have a cellphone without a computer inside." The forerunner is tentative when it comes to predictions: "In 40 years, we'll be so far away from where we are today that it's actually unthinkable."
