'Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem like Samsung has laid out a clear path forward for the public yet. And it definitely seems like the company has its work cut out for it. Developing neuromorphic chips will require engineers to eschew current machine-learning algorithms that require enormous amounts of data to work. The neuromorphic chips will also need to mimic the “activity” spikes in the human brain. That requires a whole new type of chip architecture.

“The vision we present is highly ambitious,” Donhee Ham, a Fellow of Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology and professor at Harvard, said in Samsung’s press release. “But working toward such a heroic goal will push the boundaries of machine intelligence, neuroscience, and semiconductor technology.” Indeed, it sounds like this endeavor is also going to push a lot of human brains to their breaking points.
