Computing with light
The world's first photonic AI processor from Q.ANT goes into operation at the LRZ. This milestone deployment enables us to evaluate photonic acceleration for artificial intelligence (AI) and simulation workloads – offering a path toward significantly higher performance with drastically lower energy consumption.
