Earlier this week on Monday I watched this video , but had to interrupt in the half session, of the Online Technolgy Meeting by about Photonics for Space in Extreme Environments companies in the European context. Today I resumed and finished watching it and it gives inspiration for further analysis and maybe new business ideas/insights.

When light takes a wrong turn, your whole chip fails
Silicon photonic chips route light through waveguides thinner than a human hair. Where two routes cross, tiny amounts of light leak into the wrong path — and in complex chips, those tiny losses add up catastrophically.

A new research paper just solved this with AI-designed geometries that look like abstract pixel art but achieve record-low losses across the entire telecom band AND the visible spectrum simultaneously.
