In today's development of artificial intelligence (AI), the speed of data transmission has become a significant bottleneck hindering its progress. To break through this barrier, a research team led by the University of Michigan (U-M) is developing a brand new chip connection system that uses optical waves instead of traditional cables for data transmission. This innovation is expected to address the 'memory wall' problem that limits computational speed and promote further growth of AI models. The project has received a $2 million grant from the National Science Foundation's Future Semiconductor program, with participation from the University of Washington and Penn State.

Recently, reports have indicated a surge in the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) technology among small businesses. For instance, organizations like Verizon, Salesforce, and the Associated Press have all stated that many small businesses are utilizing AI to drive revenue growth and enhance competitiveness. However, as a small business owner, I must say that these claims are overly optimistic, and the reality is not so straightforward.

With the continuous advancement of artificial intelligence technology, the global banking industry is facing unprecedented challenges. According to a recently released report, the banking sector is expected to cut up to 200,000 jobs in the next three to five years. This figure reflects a growing trend of artificial intelligence gradually replacing traditional human jobs. Image Source Note: Image generated by AI, image licensed from service provider Midjourney. The report indicates that the interviewed Chief Information Officers and Chief Technology Officers generally believe that the introduction of artificial intelligence will lead to significant changes in banking operations.

In the digital age, computer chips are getting smaller, but computing problems are becoming larger. With the continuous advancement of AI models, energy consumption and computing demands in data centers are growing exponentially. IBM's recent breakthrough in optical technology promises to transform this situation. Traditional data centers face two major technical bottlenecks: the limitations of copper wire transmission and electronic transmission speeds. Currently, most CPUs are largely idle, simply waiting for data packets to be transmitted. This represents a significant waste of computing resources.
