This video is about how the long process through which ASML (Advanced Semiconductor Materials Lithography) their EUV (extreme ultraviolet lithography) systems. Pay particular attention to how much tinkering and serendipity was involved in the process. It's hard to imagine that such a machine could have been designed by giving an AI a bunch of data and design goals and directing it to design the machine outright. It's even more difficult to imagine connecting that AI to a bunch of robots and having them build the machine in one fell swoop.
