Amid all the hype about artificial intelligence, quantum computers and advanced chipmaking — to say nothing of the mega-billion-dollar investments— is it possible that the United States still isn’t doing enough to maximize computers’ potential?
Fundamental science, i.e., science for the sake of science, often happens when someone mutters “That’s odd” or “That’s funny.” Many everyday breakthroughs like penicillin, radioactivity, and the microwave oven began this way.
The Holy Grail of supercomputing chip design is an architecture that combines the versatility and programmability of CPUs with the explicit parallelism of GPUs, and InspireSemi strives to achieve just that.
