IBM Chip Accelerates AI with Record-Breaking Performance

Researchers at IBM in San Jose, California, have invented a brain-inspired computer chip that might accelerate AI by operating quicker with less power.

Their huge NorthPole processing chip eliminates the need to often access external memory, allowing them to do tasks like image recognition.

"Its energy efficiency is just mind-blowing," says Damien Querlioz, a nanoelectronics researcher at Paris-Saclay University in Palaiseau.

According to him, the experiment, which was published in Science1, demonstrates that processing and memory may be merged on a huge scale.

NorthPole employs neural networks, which are multi-layered arrays of basic computer units trained to recognise data patterns.
