The Startup Making AI 10,000x More Energy Efficient
A new physics-based computing company called Extropic just made a bold claim!
"AI that runs on 10,000 times less energy."
Here’s why that matters.
Every time you generate an image or use ChatGPT, massive data centers consume huge amounts of energy. As AI scales, so does the problem.
But...
Extropic’s solution is EXTREME!
Instead of relying on traditional chips that process perfect ones and zeros, they built chips that work like nature itself.
Their thermodynamic computing uses natural fluctuations to generate probable answers directly, almost like intuition built into hardware.
Imagine solving a maze not step by step, but by instinctively sensing the right path. That’s how Extropic’s chips operate. They barely use power and only consume energy when measuring the final result.
Right now, they’re working with governments and banks. But soon, these superconducting chips could power everything from smartphones to giant AI clusters, making AI generation nearly free in energy terms.
This might be the biggest leap in computing since the microprocessor.
