Oooh, opto-electronic hybrid processors? Consider my interest piqued!

But will it run Cry.... I'll get my coat.

But does it blennnd

This is video from the article in Nature. I found it quite interesting although it seems there is some way to go until we see it in production. Not that I know a great deal on the subject so could be quite wrong :)

Thanks CountBartok for the video link. Seems the chip is very heat sensitive 1 Celsius and complete failure :O

I'd take this over a silly quantum computer any day.

I've never seen an optical bench anywhere near that tidy. I call lies.

What's that picture from "Wars of the Silver Pawns" got to do with it?

Skip forward 20 years to news of incremental developments in a mature optotronic industry...

Between this and quantum computing we should see some really nice advancements in the next 10-20 years. I'm hoping this all develops quickly.
