It is akin to a conventional computer's central processing unit (CPU), which performs calculations using the information held in binary bits – the 1s and 0s of data.

Learn exactly what a Neural Processing Unit (NPU) is and why it is so important to artificial intelligence technology and implementation.

Intel's Hala Point neuromorphic computer is powered by more than 1,000 new AI chips and performs 50 times faster than equivalent conventional computing systems.
