One would assume this is the basis of neural processing units, but that assumption could be way wrong. Whatever. CPUs, GPUs, and NPUs. From an earlier post: Update: add NPUs to discussion. Link here.
John Joseph Hopfield (born July 15, 1933) is an American scientist and emeritus professor of Princeton University, most widely known for his study of associative neural network in 1982.
He is known for the development of the Hopfield network. Along with Geoffrey Hinton, in 2024 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on artificial networks. He has been awarded various major physics awards for his work in multidisciplinary fields including condensed matter physics, statistical physics and biophysics.
Geoffrey Everest Hinton (born 6 December 1947) is a British-Canadian computer scientist, and cognitive psychologist most noted for his work on artificial neural networks, which has earned him the title as the "Godfather of AI".
He won the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics alongside John Hopfield. From 2013 to 2023, he divided his time working for Google (Google Brain) and the University of Toronto, before publicly announcing his departure from Google in May 2023, citing concerns about the risks of artificial intelligence (AI) technology. In 2017, he co-founded and became the chief scientific advisor of the Vector Institute in Toronto.
The Vector Institute is a private, non-profit artificial intelligence research institute in Toronto focusing primarily on machine learning and deep learning research.
As of 2023, it consists of 143 faculty members and affiliates — 38 of which are CIFAR AI chairs — 57 postdoctoral fellows, and 502 students. Along with the University of Toronto, the Vector Institute is affiliated with faculty from universities across Ontario, as well as British Columbia and Nova Scotia.
