AI’s rapid growth, powered by energy-hungry GPUs, has sparked a sustainability crisis driven by the inefficiency of digital computing’s von Neumann architecture. To overcome this, innovators are reviving analog and neuromorphic computing, which process data directly in memory, eliminating energy-intensive data movement. Companies like Vellex Computing are leading this shift, enabling ultra-efficient, brain-inspired chips that bring powerful, sustainable AI to edge devices worldwide.
