Hello..
 
 
Here is a very interesting good news especially for Artificial intelligence:

Optalysys optical processing systems will "turbo-charge" existing
computers by performing processor-intensive tasks at much faster rates
and with a significant reduction in energy consumption. The prototype is
portable and has a footprint similar to a desktop computer. The
technology has the potential to achieve Exascale processing levels by 2020.
 
Optalysys Chairman, James Duez, said "Following that we plan to pursue
the design of larger systems capable of achieving multiple exaFLOPs by
2020."
 
Investors begin to see the light – Optalysys
 
Today Boston-based Lightmatter announced an investment of $22million led
by Google's Alphabet, providing further proof that the world is
embracing optical processing technology – using light rather than
silicon to perform the mathematical calculations used in AI models.
