LightSolver says lasers top classical, quantum for optimization
LightSolver, an Israeli company that emerged three years ago talking about developing a “quantum-inspired optical processor,” is back in the spotlight, having unveiled this week what it called a “pure laser-based processing unit (LPU), a new computing paradigm” that the company argued can best the efforts of GPU-based supercomputers at optimization problems at a time when many quantum computers still lack scalability and practicality.
