The potential of AI models has just grown exponentially. Currently, AI development is limited by what’s known as the “memory wall,” which restricts computing speed. However, researchers at the U-M College of Engineering have developed a new chip-connection system that could overcome this barrier by transferring data along reconfigurable pathways of light instead of electrical wires. Learn more about this groundbreaking technology in this feature from the College of Engineering.
