Hardware for artificial intelligence
 | This article is missing information about what is even AI hardware in this article scope. . |
 | This This is a mess of an article. "memristors" are not even specialized hardware for AI, it's a basic electronic component, like resister, capacitor, inductor. Event cameras are an application of neuromorphic design, but LISP machines are not an end use application at all. may require copy editing for grammar, style, cohesion, tone, or spelling. |
Specialized hardware for artificial intelligence is used to execute artificial intelligence programs faster, such as Lisp machines, neuromorphic engineering, event cameras, JAIC, physical neural networks, or the memristor.
Traditional hardware
Lisp machines
 | This section should include only a brief summary of another article. (October 2021) |
Lisp machines were developed in the late 70s and early 80s to make AI programs written in the language Lisp to run faster.
Neural network hardware
Physical neural networks
AI accelerators
Since the 2010s, advances in computer hardware have led to more efficient methods for training deep neural networks that contain many layers of non-linear hidden units and a very large output layer.[1] By 2019, graphic processing units (GPUs), often with AI-specific enhancements, had displaced CPUs as the dominant method of training large-scale commercial cloud AI.[2] OpenAI estimated the hardware compute used in the largest deep learning projects from AlexNet (2012) to AlphaZero (2017), and found a 300,000-fold increase in the amount of compute required, with a doubling-time trendline of 3.4 months.[3][4]
