Penn Engineers have developed a new chip that uses light waves, rather than electricity, to perform the complex math essential to training AI. The chip has the potential to radically accelerate the processing speed of computers while also reducing their energy consumption.
I don’t want fuzzy math anywhere near autonomous armed machines. You want ED-209? Because that’s how you get ED-209.
human brains are the epitome of fuzzy math machines
And have you seen what we’ve done with weapons for the entirety of our history?
Yeah so nothing will change
Well we’d no longer be the dominant life form on the planet, and we’d get dealt a lot of our own medicine. So, quite a lot would change.
Uuuh fuzzy results?
I mean, I personally agree, but the military has already made it clear they don’t mind. ED-209 is basically an inevitability at this point.
