High-performance matrix multiplication remains a cornerstone of numerical computing, underpinning a wide array of applications from scientific simulations to machine learning. Researchers continually ...

AI training time is at a point in an exponential where more throughput isn't going to advance functionality much at all. The underlying problem, problem solving by training, is computationally ...

Computer scientists are a demanding bunch. For them, it’s not enough to get the right answer to a problem — the goal, almost always, is to get the answer as efficiently as possible. Take the act of ...

A new research paper titled “Discovering faster matrix multiplication algorithms with reinforcement learning” was published by researchers at DeepMind. “Here we report a deep reinforcement learning ...

Photonic innovation: researchers in the US have created an optical metamaterial that can perform vector–matrix multiplication. (Courtesy: iStock/Henrik5000) A new silicon photonics platform that can ...

The new version of AlphaZero discovered a faster way to do matrix multiplication, a core problem in computing that affects thousands of everyday computer tasks. DeepMind has used its board-game ...

I have the sense that some perspective is missing here. People should remember that every Boomer didn't spring wholly evil from the mind of a mid-1940's supervillain. The father figures of the Boomers ...
