This Artificial Synapse Can Run a Million Times Faster Than Ones in The Human Brain

Even though we are still far from being able to replicate the intricate and complex workings of the human brain with anything artificial, scientists are making headway with some specific tools, such as a recently created programmable resistor. In artificial intelligence systems, analog neural networks based on a topology intended to replicate the human brain can be constructed using resistors. The brain's synapses, which connect neurons, can process information around a million times quicker than this newest technology. The artificial synapses are specifically designed to be utilized in analog deep learning, a method for advancing AI that increases speed while lowering energy use, which is critical for both affordability and the demands placed on the planet's natural resources. The use of a specifically chosen and effective inorganic material is crucial to the major advances in this most recent resistor. The project's team claims that significant improvements in AI neural n...
