Save you the click - Apple’s not making it and it’s not solid state.
The two black blocks in that image are small tunnels that use vibrating membranes instead of fans to push air through like a regular cooling system, they just choose to call them solid state and ‘chips’ for marketing reasons.
The inventor is touting it to all OEM’s but none have big yet, so he’s taken a Dremel to a MacBook Air and fitted them himself to show it can work.
There’s no third party expert analysis in the article. There’s nothing to say it’s bullshit, but the creator’s actions feel very snake oil
It's not snake oil, but it's also not very practical in this state. It would probably take millions in R&D before it actually goes anywhere
