- kristopolous 4y agoBrilliant ideas often come from people too dumb to know something's impossible
- mikewarot 4y agoJust make a huge grid of 4 bit input/4 bit output LUTs, clock them in alternating phases like a chess/checkerboard... you'll never face a race condition. You can route around bad LUTs, and there are a lot of other advantages to this otherwise colossal waste of transistors. I've had that dumb/good? idea stuck in my brain since reading George Gilder back in 1981.
- soundsarz 4y agoYou're describing systolic array processing, circa 1979. Not a new idea. Awfully inefficient in power and space usage. "Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it."
- mikewarot 4y agoJust as neural networks were well known to be incapable of handling real world problems, which was part of the AI winter. Until they just worked thanks to backprop and deep nets
- WJW 4y agoIsn't this just an FPGA with more disadvantages?
- mikewarot 4y agoIt is an FPGA without routing issues due to inhomogeneities. Routing in a bitgrid is almost trivial.
