Right. You're talking Kurzweil HEPP and I'm talking Moravec HEPP (and shading that a little).
I may want your gadget when I go to upload, though. Josh On Thursday 12 June 2008 10:59:51 am, Matt Mahoney wrote: > --- On Wed, 6/11/08, J Storrs Hall, PhD <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Hmmph.

I'm assuming a neural network with 10^15 synapses (about 1 or 2 byte each) with 20 to 100 ms resolution, 10^16 to 10^17 operations per second. One Tesla = 350 GFLOPS, 1.5 GB, 120W, $1.3K. So maybe $1 billion and 100 MW of power for a few hundred thousand of these plus glue. > > > -- Matt Mahoney, [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > > > ------------------------------------------- > agi > Archives: http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now > RSS Feed: http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/ > Modify Your Subscription: http://www.listbox.com/member/?& > Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com > ------------------------------------------- agi Archives: http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/ Modify Your Subscription: http://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244&id_secret=103754539-40ed26 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
