Researchers have developed a laser-based artificial neuron that fully emulates the functions, dynamics and information processing of a biological graded neuron. With a signal processing speed of 10 GBaud—a billion times faster than its biological counterparts—the new laser graded neuron could lead to breakthroughs in fields like artificial intelligence and other types of advanced computing.
