🚀 AI's Energy Crisis?
#AI is exploding, but scaling compute with more data & power is too slow and costly—data centers are building nuclear plants! We need smarter ways to turn energy into intelligence.
🧠 Nature-Inspired Innovation At #Extropic rethinks hardware: Probabilistic computers using thermodynamic principles for massive efficiency. Core: "Pits" (probabilistic bits) that flicker between states for sampling probabilities.
🧵 👇
The CEO of this company is total Silicon Valley right wing -pilled, but his tech is fucking solid.
This is the right way to do #AI.. Fuck GPU’s, design the hardware for probabilistic computing from scratch.
Result: 10000x less power required.
This opens the way to me running AI some day: On my own device, without a network connection.
Extropic Unveils Thermodynamic AI Chips to Combat the Industry’s Energy Crisis
🤯 #Extropic thinks it’s reinventing the wheel with their #thermodynamic #computing, claiming it’s more energy-efficient than GPUs. 🛑 Spoiler alert: their "ultraefficient" #AI is basically tech jargon bingo with a side of probabilistic mumbo-jumbo. 🚀
