Part 2/10:
The dawn of probabilistic computing, also referred to as thermodynamic computing, represents a seismic shift in how we conceptualize computational processes. No longer do we wage war against noise; instead, we welcome it, using its inherent unpredictability as a resource for computation. This radical mindset opens the door to unprecedented energy efficiency—estimates suggest that probabilistic systems could achieve 100 million times the energy efficiency of contemporary GPUs, such as those produced by NVIDIA.
