Saw this on South China Morning Post today and had to read it twice Peking University built an optical chip system that boosts AI inference speed by over 100x while using only one ninth of the usual compute power. So instead of just throwing more GPUs at the problem they’re using light to connect chips which is a completely different approach. If this scales it kind of makes the whole “we need more data centres and more power” conversation look different Anyone else following this or is it too early to get excited submitted by /u/Neil_at_HackerEarth
