Brainchip with the right technology, the right time and the right people behind the scenes.

“”If you want to do computation on board, currently you’re very limited in what kind of processors you have available,” says Wagstaff. “You don’t have a big supercomputer. You don’t even have a multicore processor. So anything you put up there has to be very, verycomputationally efficient to achieve change detection.”Integrating AI into future spacecraft is only going to become more important. As technology improves and data transmission rates increase, NASA researchers will have to contend with an ever growing deluge of information. But “needle-in-the-haystack” problems, where the solution is hidden in a massive search space, are exactly the type of challenges machine learning was designed to solve. And once we have AI-powered explorers roaming the solar system, who knows what we might find? ””

Nice read.
