Super chip company also known as America’s technological enterprise, IBM has unveiled a computer chip which claims to command the same functions of the neurons, synapses and other characteristics of the brain when carrying out calculations. The microchip apparently has the capacity of crunching a huge amount of data, along with managing other inputs.

IBM claim that the chip is an advancement compared to the majority of chips found in most computers. By using less power than most hardware, the brain-like chip can excel during a number of tasks.

IBM don’t plan to release this chip for the foreseeable future. They are apparently in talks with different partners, trying to work out how to launch the product.
