The Memory That Computes: A New Era of AI Hardware

Описание: AI today runs on massive, power-hungry GPUs — but a new kind of memory could change everything. This video reveals how resistive memory performs computation directly inside memory, unlocking a faster, cheaper, and far more efficient future for AI.
