Artificial intelligence (AI) models like ChatGPT run on algorithms and have great appetites for data, which they process through machine learning, but what about the limits of their data-processing abilities? Researchers led by Professor Sun Zhong from Peking University’s School of Integrated Circuits and Institute for Artificial Intelligence set out to solve the von Neumann bottleneck that limits data-processing.Artificial intelligence (AI) models like ChatGPT run on algorithms and have great appetites for data, which they process through machine learning, but what about the limits of their data-processing abilities?
