- IronWolve 3y agoThe graph shows optical for ingestion but then uses digital neural networks. From the infographic, looks like its running multiple DNN's at once to get the speed up. Going to need way more details. https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/EcNDeuamRXsjomtsWKczS9-970-80.png https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/EcNDeuamRXsjomtsWKczS9-970...
- superduty 3y agoI stopped reading at “and 4,000 million times higher energy efficiency.”
- RecycledEle 3y agoChinese classes on English-language PR tend to be dated. That was the accepted way of writing a new headline a few decades back.
- throwaway4good 3y agoThe headline is by Toms Hardware. The Nature article is clearly written and fairly easy to follow. Maybe we should link to that instead.
- vsskanth 3y agoThe paper seems to be published in nature so it seems credible. Looks like they're using photonics.
- wucaworld 3y agoI am totally guessing but this seems like proof of concept chip that can likely just do some specific cnn. The benchmarks quoted seemed weird .. who does fashionmnist outside of teaching? What the heck is 3 class imagenets?? Not even sure what time lapse video recognition is. There is an advance here which is cool scientifically .. just overblown headline as usual I think.
