Intel unveils largest-ever AI 'neuromorphic computer' mimicking the human brain


Intel's Hala Point neuromorphic computer is powered by more than 1,000 new AI chips and performs 50 times faster than equivalent conventional computing systems.

Where software-based neural networks are a collection of machine learning algorithms arranged to mimic the human brain, SNNs are a physical embodiment of how that information is transmitted. Researchers with the International Centre for Neuromorphic Systems (ICNS) at Western Sydney University in Australia, however, announced plans to deploy a similar machine in December 2023. These future neuromorphic computers might even lead to large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT learning continuously from new data, which would reduce the massive training burden inherent in current AI deployments.
