Intel reveals world's biggest 'brain-inspired' neuromorphic computer intended to mimic the way the brain processes and stores data
A computer intended to mimic the way the brain processes and stores data could potentially improve the efficiency and capabilities of artificial intelligence models
No other existing machine comes close to the scale of Hala Point, although DeepSouth, a neuromorphic computer due to be completed later this year, will be capable of a claimed 228 trillion synaptic operations per second. The Loihi 2 chips are still prototypes made in small numbers by Intel, but Davies says the real bottleneck actually lies in the layers of software needed to take real-world problems, convert them into a format that can run on a neuromorphic computer and carry out processing. “Although the methods are still in research, this is the kind of continual learning problem that we believe large-scale neuromorphic systems like Hala Point can, in the future, solve in a highly efficient manner,” he says.
