IBM team builds low-power analog AI processor
Huge arrays of phase-change material perform in-memory processing.
https://arstechnica.com/science/2023/08/ibm-team-builds-low-power-analog-ai-processor/
paper:
An analog-AI chip for energy-efficient speech recognition and transcription
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-06337-5

So basically a neural network with programmable weights made of phase-change material that uses very little power.
Reconfiguring the weights (heating/cooling) takes a lot more power.

Voice to text chip? or voice commands to digital output signals chips coming?

IBM has no AI engineers at all
so they never build anything called AI processor

IBM is low money today, selling delusional ideas to fool investors

"International Business Machines Corp. stock underperforms Wednesday when compared to competitors despite daily gains

Selling delusional ideas worked fine 20-30 years ago during prosperity funded by FED

Today businesses collapse on global recession

A a does seem to be an example of artificial intellegence. He could be naturally stupid - Flyguy is equally silly - but his relentless persistence does suggest that he is a machine.

That's American capitalism for you. A roomful of monkey's trying to type everything that Shakespeare ever wrote and occasionally getting just close enough to make money

IBM isn't remotely what it was thirty years ago, and it was clearly on the way down back then. It glory days were long past.

If there is a global recession soon, it will be driven by the complete collapse of the Chinese property market - Chinese municipal administrations rather than American fringe banks as in the GFC. A different bunch of stupid politicians messing up everybody else.
