Friam Friends: A recent article <http://mashable.com/2017/06/29/microsoft-puts-ai-on-a-raspberry-pi/#HKAb_h1pvaqc> passed along by George Duncan says:
"Now, Varma's team in India and Microsoft researchers in Redmond, Washington, (the entire project is led by lead researcher Ofer Dekel) have figured out how to *compress neural networks, the synapses of Machine Learning, down from 32 bits to, sometimes, a single bit *and run them on a $10 Raspberry Pi <http://%20%28the%20entire%20project%20is%20led%20by%20ofer%20dekel%29/>, a low-powered, credit-card-sized computer with a handful of ports and no screen." How, or what, can you do with a "single bit."?
