> In contrast, p-bits flip between 0 or 1 with a tunable probability.<p>Isn't this basically an ADC (except the tunable probability isn't an input voltage)? Is this kinda-sorta a new form of analog computing?
It's not mentioned in the article, but this hardware architecture may be better suited for brute-forcing password/crypto/key cracking than traditional computing architectures.

I absolutely love the photo of the computer at the top of the article. Not at all what I thought I was going to see from this headline.
curious, where the guys who are working on mathematical models run their simulations these days.
we all know the answer is 42
Best LLM ever.
When can I get an API key!
I'm ignorant. What problems is this good at solving?
