US researchers develop 'unhackable' computer chip that works on light | Computations can be performed at light speed in this chip which is ready for deployment for building AI models immediately.
Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania have developed a new computer chip that uses light instead of electricity. This could improve the training of artificial intelligence (AI) models by improving the speed of data transfer.
Still, by controlling the height variations, the research team ensured that the light inside the chip traveled only in a straight line. Firooz Aflatouni, an associate professor in Electrical and Systems Engineering at the University, was also involved in the research, said that their chips could replace the graphics processing units(GPUs) that companies use to train and classify their AI models. In addition to performing computations faster and with less electricity consumption, SiPh chips can also address data privacy concerns.
