Storage, computation, and communication are the three pillars of modern information technology, with computation being the central aspect. The von Neumann architecture, based on the Turing machine ...

As the barriers to CPU scaling have risen with each successive node shrink, the number of scientists looking for alternate methods of driving higher performance and/or saving power has also steadily ...

A technical paper titled “On Hardware-efficient Inference in Probabilistic Circuits” was published by researchers at Aalto University and UCLouvain. “Probabilistic circuits (PCs) offer a promising ...

A new computing paradigm—thermodynamic computing—has entered the scene. Okay, okay, maybe it’s just probabilistic computing by a new name. They both use noise (such as that caused by thermal ...

What if the key to unlocking artificial general intelligence (AGI) lies not in brute computational power but in something as unassuming as thermal noise? Imagine a world where AI systems capable of ...

What if the future of artificial intelligence wasn’t just faster or smarter, but fundamentally more sustainable? Picture this: a world where the energy demands of AI no longer threaten to outpace our ...

Normal Computing has announced its successful tape-out of the world's first thermodynamic computing chip, called CN101. Designed for AI/HPC data centers, the ASIC is a step away from traditional ...

China was the first in the world to launch mass production non-binary chips based on AI, applying them in aviation and manufacturing. It is noted that a team of scientists from Beihang University in ...
