Etched is building an AI chip that only runs one type of model

As generative AI touches a growing number of industries, the companies producing chips to run the models are benefitting enormously. Nvidia in particular, which commands an estimated 70% to 95% of the market for AI chips, wields massive influence. Cloud providers from Meta to Microsoft are spending billions of dollars on Nvidia GPUs, wary of […]

The world of artificial intelligence (AI) has recently seen significant advancements in generative models, a type of machine-learning algorithm that “learns” patterns from sets of data in order to generate new, similar sets of data. Generative models are often used for things like drawing images and natural language generation—a famous example are the models used to develop chatGPT.The world of artificial intelligence (AI) has recently seen significant advancements in generative models, a type of machine-learning algorithm that “learns” patterns from sets of data in order to generate new, similar sets of data.

Nearly all the neural networks that power modern artificial intelligence tools such as ChatGPT are based on a 1960s-era computational model of a living neuron. A new model developed at the Flatiron Institute’s Center for Computational Neuroscience (CCN) suggests that this decades-old approximation doesn’t capture all the computational abilities that real neurons possess and that this older model is potentially holding back AI development.Nearly all the neural networks that power modern artificial intelligence tools such as ChatGPT are based on a 1960s-era computational model of a living neuron.
