Graphcore announces roadmap to Ultra Intelligence AI Supercomputer

Starting from a single cell and shaped by nearly 4 billion years of evolution, the human brain is perhaps nature's greatest achievement. Our brain is an incredibly complex computing device with approximately 100 billion neurons and more than 100 trillion parameters in a biological-neural-network system that delivers a level of compute yet to be matched by any silicon computers. Today, we are revealing that Graphcore is developing an ultra-intelligence AI computer that will surpass the parametric capacity of the brain. The computer science pioneer Jack Good* was the first person to describe a machine that would exceed the capability of our brain in his 1965 paper, Speculations Concerning the First Ultra-Intelligent Machine. Named in honour of Jack Good, Graphcore will deliver by 2024 the world's first ultra-intelligence AI computer that we are calling the Good computer.
