There's probably lots to be said to answer your question, but there are two points in this announcement that are pivotal in my view:
- read AND write speeds comparable to DRAM
- unbelievable endurance while operating at DRAM read and write speeds
DRAM is the fast memory in your computer. Historically the speed came with a big trade-off - when the power goes out, everything in it is gone. So computers work on a two-stage system of storage where information you need to retain is stored on a much slower type of memory (hard disk or flash) and then is loaded into DRAM when the computer needs to be able to access and manipulate it quickly - to then transfer back to your slower storage whatever it wants to keep.
These performance characteristics potentially offer a completely new hardware architecture. And that's just the beginning, too. These new generation memories also have characteristics that could allow computation IN MEMORY - and those characteristics are particularly suitable to things like machine learning. I don't know if anyone has noticed, but there's been a bit of an explosion in that field this year.
In short, 4DS and competing ReRAM technologies could just be ushering in a new era of advances in computing. Just a little thing.
