In a technical paper quietly released earlier this year, IBM detailed what it calls the IBM Neural Computer, a custom-designed, reconfigurable parallel processing system designed to research and develop emerging AI algorithms and computational neuroscience. This week, the company published a preprint describing the first application demonstrated on the Neural Computer: a deep “neuroevolution” system that combines the hardware implementation of an Atari 2600,  » ….
