People make a big deal out of the neocortical sheet -- gray matter -- at the outside of the brain because that's where all the computation happens for intelligence, except that it doesn't. The human brain is almost all wiring between gray matter neurons that gets grown and pruned during learning: white matter. In the impoverished language of artificial neural networks, these connections are "sparse kernels".
Sparse kernels are poorly supported by present ML hardware, let alone CPUs. Has anyone bothered to refocus the information processing industry on optimizing hardware rewiring? ------------------------------------------ Artificial General Intelligence List: AGI Permalink: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/T1dc2a5f2d1d491d4-M8c317c13dabd9ac662a75da8 Delivery options: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/subscription
