Over the last eight years, IBM researcher Modha has been working on a new type of digital AI chip for neural inference, which he calls NorthPole. It’s an extension of TrueNorth, the last ...

IBM Research’s lab in California is developing a prototype chip called NorthPole based on the architecture of the human brain. It holds the promise of greatly improving computer efficiency and ...

IBM Corp. today detailed NorthPole, an internally designed artificial intelligence chip that it says is significantly more power-efficient than competing processors.NorthPole was developed over th ...

IBM says that NorthPole delivers 25x performance per watt and 22x the inference performance of nVidia's 12nm based V100 tensor processor, and is 1/5 the size. In spite of the efficiency gains nVidia ...

The existence of a new type of digital chip `` NorthPole '' that IBM Research Center in Aldeman, California has been researching for 20 years together with its predecessor chip has been revealed.
