Very interesting article about a company bringing out a photonic super computer. This is supposedly 10x faster than NVIDIA's AI chips. Compared to other supercomputers, it also uses 90% less energy.
This is not general purpose but it is suited to run neural networks, something that is vital for cloud computer centers.
The article states that it might have either kickstarted Moore's Law or obliterated it.
