Hyperdimensional Computing Revolutionizes AI

Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are the building blocks of large language models like ChatGPT. However, computer scientists claim ANNs are super power-hungry and lack transparency. The current structure of ANNs is based on individual artificial neurons that perform computations, which makes it impossible for them to reason by analogy, as humans do. Scientists are proposing a new approach to computation called hyperdimensional computing. Hyperdimensional vectors represent pieces of information as a single entity, enabling efficient and powerful computing. Hyperdimensional computing promises a new world where computing is efficient and robust, and machine-made decisions are entirely transparent. By using hypervectors, scientists can get machines to reason more abstractly and efficiently than before.
