The American manufacturer of microprocessors Intel will present the chip, capable to recognize objects in photos. This is reported by MIT Technology Review. It is reported that the device uses only one thousandth of the energy consumed by a conventional microprocessor. The Loihi device is a neuromorphic chip that mimics the work of neurons and synapses in the human brain. Due to their narrow specialization, such chips are much more energy efficient, which makes them ideal for mobile devices and industrial equipment. The release of a new device can help Intel divert attention from the recently discovered vulnerability in the security system of hundreds of millions of its production chips.
