Tooke me forever to find the actual article so here it is: A first-principles hetero-integrated Fourier transform system based on memristors - Nature Electronics
I think this may be the year that Neuromorphics catch on. Sandia labs also had a pretty major implementation of a PDE solver using a chonk of Intel Loihi chips.
hetero-integrated
Yeah, I think so as well. In general, I'd argue that digital chips are a bad fit for LLMs in my opinion because the network works on gradients, and you're trying to use discrete digital transistors to encode them. It's just fundamentally inefficient. An analog chip can express gradients much cheaper and faster.
