The two challenges there are firstly - that analog design has been a separate electrical engineering school for most of a century, so there are few who could design it - and secondly - that every single chip will have subtle variations in its computations, necessitating some sort of model finetuning per chip. Possibly the chip could be characterised at the factory, and ship with the characterisation data burned into a controller rom or something, but if that doesn’t pan out the whole thing is likely a non-starter.
If it could be made to work, you could run a fable-grade model in tens of watts.
- itsthecourier 14d agoawesome explanation. never thought about the complexity of doing analog and having precision issues because it's not discrete anymore and repeatable

- mindok 14d agoThis made me smile. A true test of human-like intelligence. Maybe they could take some entry level jobs (“I can make a nice Wordpress site”) and build a CV?
