Taking powerful artificial intelligence software and making it open source, so anyone in the world can use it, seems like something out of a sci-fi movie, but both Google and Microsoft have done exactly that in recent months. Now Facebook is going a step ... read more
The Biological Complexity Monster For about a decade I have seen the same pattern repeat itself. A circuit designer builds a Spike-Timing-Dependant-Plasticty (STDP) neuron. They justify their efforts because STDP is popular and by saying “that is wh... read more
Knowm Inc., a start-up pioneering next-generation advanced computing architectures and technology, today announced the availability of two new variations of the Knowm memristor. The company also announced raw device data available for purchase that will g... read more
It’s been introduced as nothing less than a new way of computing certain kinds of problems. It’s another approach to computing more the way the brain does it than the way Mr. Von Neumann does it. Which is to say, using orders of magnitude less power t... read more
