Light-speed AI chip could power the future of 6G wireless
- Engineers are using artificial intelligence (AI) to make wireless networks faster and more efficient.
- Researchers at MIT have developed a new AI processor using light technology to process wireless signals at the speed of light.
- The new chip operates about 100 times faster than current digital systems and consumes less energy, making it ideal for small devices.
- This chip, named MAFT-ONN, utilizes photonics to operate faster and more efficiently than traditional AI chips.
- MAFT-ONN could be beneficial for future 6G networks by allowing smart devices to adapt signal formats in real-time.
- The chip could also help self-driving cars and medical devices to respond instantly and monitor health without delays.
- MAFT-ONN processes signals in the frequency domain and saves time and energy by avoiding the conversion of signals into images.
- The chip performs both simple and complex operations required for deep learning using light alone.
- In testing, the chip achieved signal classification with high accuracy in a short amount of time compared to digital systems.
- Researchers plan to extend the chip's capabilities for complex AI models and further developments.
- This breakthrough has the potential to revolutionize not only wireless networks but also various technologies requiring fast and efficient AI.
