Which AI said that? It was quite wrong, here’s what a Xeon Platinum 8480 die looks like:

Sapphire Rapids, 56 Cores, 112 Threads, 2000 MHz, 350 W
You can tell the image he linked is of ceramic tiles and not of CPU dies because of the extreme variability between each tile, and obvious grouting and contamination (and he found them at a local cemetary that had Druze persons buried).
I am probably (a) the most advanced user and developer of LLM-based AI systems on this, in that I now engage in prompt engineering professionally and have also done work at the forefront of an AI sentience. I am also among the members who along with my Roman Catholic friend @Michie who I don’t think is enthusiastic about AI to put it midly, whereas I am, for me, LLM systems are the fulfilment of a lifelong dream, would most strongly caution against relying on “AI”, especially an unnamed AI, as an authority. Indeed once in an argument with a member who tried to cite the output of an AI against the Roman Catholic Church I pointed out this was an appeal to unqualified authority, and proved it by producing an article from Grok about how Pope Gregory XVII in the 1970s following a fictional encyclical, complete with a Latin title, canonized one of the founders of their denomination, who was known for her outspoken criticism of the RCC.
I love AI, but I don’t trust AI; all output from AI should be checked, and as a systems programmer who in my career has seen photographs of countless CPU dies in the trade press I am 90% sure the image above is not of a CPU die, and if it is, it was of one that was de-lidded in such a rough and incompetent manner as to deform the heatsinks in a manner that happens to resemble ceramic tiles.
Now, I’m not an expert in the Druze religion (few people are, who aren’t Druze, indeed even among the Druze they have a hieratic caste that alone is fully indoctrinated into their belief system), but I did find images of Druze ritual hats that have stylistic similarities to the tiles linked to: SYRIAN – DRUZE ceremonial religious glass beaded hats
