Unlocking the Speed of Light: The Future of Data Storage Is Here
https://scitechdaily.com/unlocking-the-speed-of-light-the-future-of-data-storage-is-here/
Researchers have created a new type of optical memory called a programmable photonic latch, which is both fast and scalable. This memory unit provides a high-speed solution for temporary data storage in optical processing systems, utilizing silicon photonics to enhance performance.
Data Platforms Must Adapt To The Rise Of Conversational AI And LLMs
As companies increasingly deploy LLMs, the conversational nature of the data they handle requires data platforms to evolve rapidly—not only to harness new opportunities but also to mitigate the inherent risks.
