It’s been a long time coming, but I have to say that artificial intelligence (AI) is finally starting to make my life easier in meaningful ways. I know, right? I’m as surprised to hear myself saying this as I’m sure you are to be reading it.
As a brief aside, I just received an email from my chum Stephane Boucher, … Read More → "Next-Gen AI Vision Processors Target Edge Applications"
The man, the myth, the legend Giovanni De Micheli (Nanni) joins me this week! Recently honored with the 2022 Phil Kaufman Award for Distinguished Contributions to Electronic System Design, Nanni has been a powerhouse in the world of EDA for a very long time. His work has expanded the fields of Network-on-Chip (NoC), high-level synthesisRead More → "High Tech Heavyweights: EDA Legend Giovanni De Micheli"
I think we’re all familiar with the old riddle joke that starts with the question, “Why did the chicken cross the road?” and ends with the answer, “To get to the other side!” This is one of the things we seem to learn by some form of sociological osmosis without ever being able to recall where we first heard it.
According to … Read More → "Is the Future of AI Sparse?"
Did you know imec and VUB have teamed up to develop soft robotic systems that can feel pain and self-heal? Bram Vanderborght (imec) joins me this week to chat all about it! We investigate the challenges inherent to soft robotics, how an integrated approach and several breakthrough innovations made these robotic systems possible, and where Bram thinks soft robotics are headed in the future.
Way back in the mists of time we used to call 2020, the guys and gals at Synopsys launched DSO.ai (Design Space Optimization AI), which they described as being “The industry’s first autonomous artificial intelligence (AI) application for chip design.”
As they said at that time, “DSO.ai searches for optimization targets in very large solution spaces of chip design, utilizing reinforcement … Read More → "100+ AI-Designed SoCs and Counting!"
In my previous column, we discussed how the year 2030 seems set to be an exciting time to be in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) space (where no one can hear you scream). For example, in addition to the industrial IoT (IIoT) we also have the artificial intelligence of things (AIoT).
“What’s the AIoT when it’s at home?” I hear … Read More → "Mind-Boggling Neuromorphic Brain Chips (Part 2)"
