🧬 Chinese researchers have created a laser neural network that operates at a speed of 10 Gbaud, which is a billion times faster than a living neuron — a biological neuron transmits a signal in 1 millisecond, while a laser neuron transmits a signal in just a few picoseconds (trillionths of a second).
Such neurons can be added to computing systems, which will increase the speed of AI by thousands of times.
Superintelligence with self-awareness may appear much sooner than we expect.
