What GEMESYS does
GEMESYS Technologies develops analog chip designs based on the information-processing mechanisms of the human brain. This novel architecture aims to overcome the inefficiencies of current hardware for artificial intelligence, enabling AI hardware vendors to distribute chips that are significantly more energy-efficient for training neural networks. The technology reduces the cost, time, and data required for AI training, while also improving overall quality and performance. Its small size and high energy efficiency allow for embedded AI capabilities, bringing both AI training and inferencing to edge devices. GEMESYS is also involved in the EMULAITE project, which focuses on developing a revolutionary approach to AI training using analog circuit emulation and memristors to achieve 100–1,000x more energy-efficient AI training, supporting sustainable edge AI and reducing the environmental impact of AI data centers.
