Thermodynamic computing uses physical circuits that changes in response to noise, such random thermal fluctuations in the environment, to perform low-energy computations. A recent spate of experiments, theories and prototype hardware have shown it’s especially good at randomization tasks, and may be equally good at diffusion model tasks (e.g. image generation) in the future.
Yeah I’m always unclear on headlines. I’d rather de-clickbait them but some mods are very particular about only showing unedited headlines
