One of the issues with anyone discussing Moore's Law is that people don't specify which Moore's they are talking about.
The economic version of Moore's Law, e.g. cost per transistor halves every 18-24 months, died at 28nm. Dennard scaling broke down earlier.
Jensen here seems to refer to "total compute available in a given system", which is a strange metric: It's not compute-per-dollar, or compute-per-unit-of-energy, but ... as far as I can tell "compute per unit of ... volume"?
