Geometric Dimension
alpha = d * alpha_0: semiconductors d=2 (alpha ~ 0.23), generic d=1 (alpha ~ 0.12).
Impact Score
Score Reasoning
- Importance
- Important supporting result for the AI transition paper. Explains why semiconductors learn 2x faster (d=2 planar). Feeds into crisis duration predictions.
- Novelty
- New insight: alpha=d*alpha_0 is a genuine contribution explaining cross-industry variation in learning rates through manufacturing geometry.
- Quality
- Clear table of dimensional examples, well-motivated puzzle resolution. Concise and focused.
