A developer argues that balanced ternary (-1, 0, +1) could replace binary for AI hardware, citing 20× model compression, 3× inference speedup, and 8× power reduction. Microsoft's BitNet b1.58 demonstr…
James McAvity, CEO of Cormint Inc., says declining Bitcoin mining difficulty and cheap ASIC hardware make now the best entry point for miners in five years. Cormint raised $29 million in Series B fund…
Researchers at the University of Tennessee and the University of Florida developed a hardware neural network backdoor that can be hidden in custom chips used for edge AI, exploiting vulnerabilities in…
Epoch AI projects that compute power for running AI models will surpass compute power for building them by 2030, with nearly half of inference operations shifting to specialized ASICs while training c…
