Forget quantum, 10 years from now all ML accelerators will be analog (mixed signal, to be precise).

Wouldn't it be so shameful yet serendipitous, after spending billions on Noisy Quantum computers, it turns out that computation, the entire time, was only a result from the accidental facilitating of analog processes through the eventual averaging of otherwise stochastic electrons?[0]

They probably should be, but I don't know of anyone working on this. Do you have citations?

It’s still in early stages, but I would keep an eye on Mythic, Syntiant, and Mentium Tech.

I’ve heard claims like this before. Do you have a source?
