Intel is already working on several chips designed to train and run deep neural networks faster. With Loihi, the chipmaker hopes to solve a whole different class of AI problems.
In the future, circuits and systems modelled on human brains could end up in everything from supercomputers to everyday smartphones.
Contract looks to develop processors based on 7-nanometer architecture capable of delivering an incredible 75 gigaflops per-watt.
IBM Research has demonstrated a radio-frequency graphene transistor with the highest frequency (100 GigaHertz) so far.
Claudia Mitchell lost an arm in a motorcycle accident, but she's now using a 'bionic' arm that she can control with her thoughts. This bionic arm was designed at the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago with funds from DARPA. This artificial arm could provide hope for many soldier amputees as well as civilians. But read more...
I’m optimistic that we will see the programming breakthroughs in the next few years that will make it much easier to write efficient, correct, and modular programs for multi-core processors
