Researchers achieve the first silicon integrated ECRAM for a practical AI accelerator

The transformative changes brought by deep learning and artificial intelligence are accompanied by immense costs. For example, OpenAI’s ChatGPT algorithm costs at least $100,000 every day to operate. This could be reduced with accelerators, or computer hardware designed to efficiently perform the specific operations of deep learning. However, such a device is only viable if it can be integrated with mainstream silicon-based computing hardware on the material level.

This was preventing the implementation of one highly promising accelerator—arrays of electrochemical random-access memory, or ECRAM—until a research team at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign achieved the first material-level integration of ECRAMs onto . The researchers, led by graduate student Jinsong Cui and professor Qing Cao of the Department of Materials Science & Engineering, recently reported an ECRAM device designed and fabricated with materials that can be deposited directly onto silicon during fabrication in Nature Electronics, realizing the first practical ECRAM-based deep learning accelerator.

“Other ECRAM devices have been made with the many difficult-to-obtain properties needed for deep learning accelerators, but ours is the first to achieve all these properties and be integrated with silicon without compatibility issues,” Cao said. “This was the last major barrier to the technology’s widespread use.”

Former Google engineer predicts humans will achieve immortality within eight years

One can only hope.


A former Google engineer has just predicted that humans will achieve immortality in eight years, something more than likely considering that 86% of his 147 predictions have been correct.

Ray Kurzweil visited the YouTube channel Adagio, in a discussion on the expansion of genetics, nanotechnology and robotics, which he believes will lead to age-reversing ‘nanobots’.

These tiny robots will repair damaged cells and tissues that deteriorate as the body ages, making people immune to certain diseases such as cancer.

NVIDIA Reveals REVOLUTIONARY AI — Better Than GPT-4 And Midjourney V5

I dunno if anyone has seen this. As a former Linux user, I’ve been an Nvidia fan for a long time and now they’ve gone on from games and Bitcoin mining. Sorry if this is a double post. I’m on my way out the door for my mom’s Dr appointment. I always worry I’ll double post by accident.


NVIDIA’s Jensen Huang just announced a set of revolutionary new Artificial Intelligence Models and Partnerships at GTC 2023. NVIDIA has always been one of, if not the most important company in the AI Industry by creating the most powerful AI hardware to date. Among them the A100 and future H100 GPU’s which are powering GPT-4 from OpenAI, Midjourney and everyone else. This gives them a lot of power to jump into the AI race themselves and allows them to surpass and beat the currently best AI models from Large Language Models and Image Generation with software like Omniverse and Hardware like the DGX H100 Supercomputer and Grace CPU’s.

Generative AI set to affect 300 million jobs across major economies

The latest breakthroughs in artificial intelligence could lead to the automation of a quarter of the work done in the US and eurozone, according to research by Goldman Sachs.

The investment bank said on Monday that “generative” AI systems such as ChatGPT, which can create content that is indistinguishable from human output, could spark a productivity boom that would eventually raise annual global gross domestic product by 7 percent over a 10-year period.

But if the technology lived up to its promise, it would also bring “significant disruption” to the labor market, exposing the equivalent of 300 million full-time workers across big economies to automation, according to Joseph Briggs and Devesh Kodnani, the paper’s authors. Lawyers and administrative staff would be among those at greatest risk of becoming redundant.

Google Duplex Will Change EVERYTHING… Here’s Why!

In case you’re wondering how Google duplex actually works. Goodnight!


Google Duplex Will Change EVERYTHING… Here’s Why!Welcome back to Tech Craze, today on the channel we are going to catch sight of Everything you need to know about the google duplex. Google Duplex is a project launched in 1998 that is currently live in the majority of the US, along with some other parts of the world. At first, it allowed users to access an AI assistant to help make restaurant reservations. However, its use has since expanded to other functions as well.

In November of 2018, the company announced that Google Duplex was rolling out to a select number of public users in a few US cities. Google put in a few security changes. Those changes include the AI voice system starting the voice call by identifying itself as being from Google. It also tells the receiver of the call that it is being recorded. If the receiver says they don’t want to be recorded, Google Assistant then transfers that call to a non-recorded line. Google Duplex now works in 49 states in the US according to its support site. Only Louisiana does not have Google Duplex support. A report from VentureBeat indicated that Duplex has expanded to the UK, Australia, and Canada. Since then, Google’s support pages also show it has expanded to India, Mexico, and Spain. Interesting, it is better to show you how it works and why this is a great help for everyone.

ChatGPT Data Breach Confirmed as Security Firm Warns of Vulnerable Component Exploitation

One more. I hope it’s not posted yet. Even AI isn’t safe.


ChatGPT creator OpenAI has confirmed a data breach caused by a bug in an open source library, just as a cybersecurity firm noticed that a recently introduced component is affected by an actively exploited vulnerability.

OpenAI said on Friday that it had taken the chatbot offline earlier in the week while it worked with the maintainers of the Redis data platform to patch a flaw that resulted in the exposure of user information.

The issue was related to ChatGPT’s use of Redis-py, an open source Redis client library, and it was introduced by a change made by OpenAI on March 20.
