Big things are happening in computing from all angles. Hot on the heels of Microsoft announcing a programming language for quantum computing, Intel today introduced a first-of-a-kind self-learning chip that mimic how the human brain works.
According to Intel, Loihi is an extremely energy-efficient chip that uses data to learn and make inferences. It gets smarter over time and doesn't need to be trained.
