The Dawn of Photonic Computing: A New Era in AI Technology
Over the past few years, we have witnessed an extraordinary revolution in artificial intelligence (AI), largely fueled by the development of advanced AI chips. As the demand for computing power surges, the limitations of traditional computer chip scaling have become evident. With emerging technologies like graphene chips, probabilistic computers, and quantum computers still in the experimental stage, light-based computers have transitioned from theory to reality. In this article, we explore the exciting advancements in photonic computing, particularly the innovative Native Processing Unit (NPU) designed by the startup Q.ANT.
