Traditional AI systems often rely on expensive, high-energy lasers for optimal performance.
Researchers discovered that less complex light sources can actually outperform lasers in specific AI applications.
By harnessing a specific part of the light spectrum, researchers achieved surprising results.
Using partially coherent light can boost AI computations significantly.
The technology was successfully used to identify Parkinson's disease with high accuracy.
The new method can achieve incredible speeds, processing equivalent to hours of 4K video in seconds.
This discovery could lead to cheaper, more energy-efficient, and powerful AI systems.
The benefit of using 'poorer' light sources has a scaling effect.
We will investigate whether this insight might apply to optical communications."
