Researchers in Finland have invented a new type of material to develop microscopic memristors that mimic brain activity. These memristors, with their exceptional properties, could be key to curbing the growth in electricity consumption driven by AI.


Researchers at the University of Turku are developing microscopic memory resistors, memristors, that mimic brain activity, which could be the key to curbing the growth in electricity consumption dr

“Each question posed to AI takes ten times more energy than a regular Google search,” says Paturi, whose research group is developing new types of energy-efficient memory resistors. The main difference between the memristor developed in Turku and its competitors is precisely its unique material that enables the production of smaller memory resistors than in competing devices.
