LightSolver's LPU100 optical computer outperforms supercomputers and quantum computing
Livescience.com — May 14, 2024, 12:00 PM UTC
Summary: LightSolver has developed the LPU100 optical computer, using 100 lasers to perform AI calculations in nanoseconds, outperforming quantum and classical supercomputers. It can handle complex tasks like vector-matrix multiplications in 10 nanoseconds, surpassing GPUs. The technology is "quantum-inspired" but doesn't rely on qubits. The LPU100 is practical for industries like finance and logistics, operating efficiently at room temperature and available through a cloud platform.

I'm replacing the original 8-factor scoring system with a new and improved one. It doesn't use the original factors and gives much better significance scores.
