There's also digital probabilistic computing, with a processor working on AWS, and for the right workload ,claimed to be offering a very significant speed boost:
> In contrast, p-bits flip between 0 or 1 with a tunable probability.
Isn't this basically an ADC (except the tunable probability isn't an input voltage)? Is this kinda-sorta a new form of analog computing?

It's not mentioned in the article, but this hardware architecture may be better suited for brute-forcing password/crypto/key cracking than traditional computing architectures.

Is there a paper on that? I’m not I see how.

I absolutely love the photo of the computer at the top of the article. Not at all what I thought I was going to see from this headline.

curious, where the guys who are working on mathematical models run their simulations these days.

I'm ignorant. What problems is this good at solving?
