“The researchers call their new method Linear-Complexity Multiplication—it works by approximating FPMs using integer addition. They claim that testing, thus far, has shown that the new approach reduces electricity demand by 95%.
The one drawback it has is that it requires different hardware than that currently in use. But the research team also notes that the new type of hardware has already been designed, built and tested.
How such hardware would be licensed, however, is still unclear—currently, GPU maker Nvidia dominates the AI hardware market. How they respond to this new technology could have a major impact on the pace at which it is adopted—if the company's claims are verified.”
