"DeepSouth uses a neuromorphic system which mimics biological processes, using hardware to efficiently emulate large networks of spiking neurons at 228 trillion synaptic operations per second - rivalling the estimated rate of operations in the human brain."
Oh man, I knew when I saw this headline there was going to be a massive asterisk like this. Saved me a click.
What will David Chalmers say?
