Spectre & Meltdown, What’s Going On?

Earlier in January 2018, Intel shocked the world with Spectre & Meltdown that’s affecting 90% of devices in the market today, an issue that dates back nearly to chips that was made many years ago. So what actually happened? Why is Spectre and Meltdown and more importantly, what should you expect in the coming months? We speak to Chip Doctor, Dr Shawn Tan of Aeste Works to find out what goes on in building these microprocessors.
