How is this different than the soviet ternery computers? Is the AI here just a buzzword and its literally just a ternery chip? Or is there something else that genuinely sets it apart? (I have been tuning out anything "AI" for so long now that i dont know what an "ai" chip is)
Sounds to me like it's not ternary at all. But also sounds like it's really purely for AI
maybe? depending on the kernel of truth buried under the headline
It's known that associative memories (and some other neural networks) have memory capacities that scale more favorably with the size of the alphabet of their representations than the number of units of computation
Well, it's binary instead of ternary logic. And also, they are using a really wierd way of storing numbers if the article is anything to go by. Although what they are describing would actually dramatically increase the power loss rather than decreasing it, so I am going to look at the original paper to what was actually done.
The piracy sites are not working
I have put in a request for the original paper. Let's hope they share.
