I visited Intel's robot-run AI chip factory, where the biggest danger is human skin and hair
Business Insider's Olivia Nemec visited Intel's advanced chip factory in Oregon, where strict contamination controls prevent human skin, hair, and dust from damaging semiconductors. The facility, which produces critical chips for AI and everyday technology, enforces rules like avoiding makeup and wearing $1,000 bunny suits. Semiconductor sales are projected to reach $1 trillion by 2027.
