DCD reports on the epic decades-long quest to make computers more like the human brain. Early efforts brought us the deep learning revolution, neuromorphic computing could bring us so much more
woah!
I remember when you would see every 2-4 months a new CPU would come out with faster clock speeds, such as 233MHz, to 400 MHz, to 800 MHz. I would figure by now we should off seen 200 Ghz cpus. I know that dual cores, and multi thread cpus are the newest fad right now, but to see cpus not getting clocked any faster then 5.2 Ghz, other then by overclockers, seems a little hard to swallow. I thought by now would would of seen atleast one cpu capable of out putting 1 THz (Terahert). I know most apps, and software would not need, or even take advantage of the speed, but what is with the lag in CPU clokcing speeds. Oh well atleast they broke the 5 GHz barrier.
