MTAR T3D Sessions: Why AI Needs So Much Compute | Better AI 3/6

Why does current AI need so much compute to produce an answer?

In episode three of “Better AI,” our six-part series from More Than a Refresh Presents: T3D Sessions, Reza Rassool of Kwaai and JD Drake begin a two-part look at faster AI. They compare current neural networks with biological intelligence, which can learn while thinking and make a fast initial decision without processing every detail first.

Reza explains that current AI separates training from inference and passes input through multiple layers before producing a result. The connections between those layers can cause computation to…
