Semi Conductors
Northwestern University researchers jet-printed flexible artificial neurons that fire like real brain cells – realistic enough to trigger live mouse neurons – pointing toward neuromorphic chips that could one day cut the punishing energy cost of AI.
Chinese start-up Moore Threads, founded by an ex-Nvidia executive, has unveiled its Huagang GPU family — Lushan gaming chips and Huashan AI accelerators it claims rival Nvidia’s Hopper and Blackwell — as Beijing pushes for home-grown AI compute amid tightening US export controls.
