According to researchers at Washington State University (WSU), the future of neuromorphic computer chips may lie in … honey. Scientists involved in the study claim that this technology could be paving the way for sustainable, bio-degradable, and overwhelmingly fast computing. Honey is hardly the first thing to come to mind when you imagine a computer chip, but WSU engineers believe that it could be the key to making computing eco-friendly while also being powerful enough to mimic the workings of a human brain. This form of computing, made to simulate how the neurons in our brains work, is referred to as neuromorphic. Although many of us may be impressed with how advanced computers are these days (let this new honey-based finding be the proof of that), our own brains are far more impressive still. That is why neuromorphic computing is sometimes thought of as the future of technology — because the human brain can still process, analyze, and adapt to what it sees in ways that a … [Read more...] about Future computer chips may be made out of honey | Digital Trends

Apple is expected to launch the new iPhone 14 in late 2022, but this one got an early start on the rumor mill, with the first bits of news coming in before the iPhone 13 had even made its debut. But, as a release so far out, the little bits we have heard are likely to evolve and change over the coming year. Phones take a long time to build, and conditions like the ongoing pandemic and chip shortage could still force a change in plans before launch, so take everything here with a pinch of salt. Contents Cameras Pricing and release date Models Specs Design Anything else? Show 1 more item For now, here’s everything we expect so far from the next iPhone 14: Cameras Kuo previously shared that Apple is considering a 48-megapixel camera for the iPhone 14. The company has stuck with 12MP for the last few iPhones, so a 48MP main camera would be a pretty huge increase and allow for tricks like oversampling, which phones like the Pixel 6 and … [Read more...] about Apple iPhone 14: Release date, leaks, price, and more | Digital Trends

AMD revealed its Ryzen 7000 CPUs at Computex 2022 , and as expected, the new generation exclusively supports DDR5. That’s a bit of a problem considering the massively inflated prices of DDR5 memory at the moment, but AMD says it doesn’t expect pricing to be an issue once launch rolls around. Following AMD’s keynote presentation , director of technical marketing Robert Hallock said the company is “all-in on DDR5.” When asked about the high prices of DDR5, Hallock seemed confident: “The supply looks really good. The memory vendors are bullish about being able to enable our supply forecast for the year, for next year. And so we don’t see any real challenges here [with pricing].” After sustained high pricing in 2021, experts say that DDR5 prices will drop throughout 2022 . At the moment, though, they’re still much higher than DDR4. A 32GB Corsair Dominator Platinum DDR5 kit — among the best RAM you can buy — sells for about $310, while the same DDR4 kit is only $180. The … [Read more...] about AMD Ryzen 7000 will ‘end the stalemate’ on high DDR5 prices | Digital Trends
