I don't understand why fuzzing hardware is being presented as a new thing here... In silicon validation, constrained random testing has been the standard methodology for at least 10 years. With the complexity of modern CPUs, it's effectively impossible to validate the hardware _without_ using some kind of randomized testing, which looks a whole lot like fuzzing to me. What is new here? Or is this a case of someone outside the industry rediscovering known techniques.
