IBM’s NorthPole chip runs AI image recognition 22x faster than current chips

• IBM has developed a chip called NorthPole that runs AI-based image recognition 22 times faster than current chips on the market.

• The chip uses a two-dimensional array of memory blocks and interconnected CPUs to process data quickly.

• However, it can only run specialized AI processes and not training processes or large language models.

• The researchers plan to test connecting multiple NorthPole chips together to overcome this limitation.
