First of all, Apple's bionic chip is AI chip, AI chip is a brain-like chip designed to mimic the structure of human brain neurons, which is probably the reason why Apple named its own chip as bionic chip, but Huawei's AI chip ah, Qualcomm's is also ah.
< br >
Remember, it's all AI chips, but Apple's name sounds a little bit more awesome!
< br >
All AI chips are FPGA chips, and the user redefines the connection between the gate circuit and the memory by burning the FPGA configuration file, and then designs the hardware circuit in the hardware language.
< br >
< br >
In popular terms, the AI chip is a chip that can have what functions you need it to have.
< br >
First, powerful algorithms.
< br >
The AI chips used in mobile phones can be processed at about 30 to 50 times the speed of various AI operators.
< br >
Apple's A12 bionic chip can perform 500 million operations per second.
< br >
For example, when we use mobile phones to take pictures every day, the AI chip can do a better image detection, segmentation and understanding of image semantics, and the reason why these functions can be immediately completed on the mobile phone is because the AI chip has strong computing power.
< br >
The traditional processing method is to upload the calculation of complex data to the cloud, and then download it to the terminal after the cloud is completed. The reason for such trouble is the lack of computing power, and the powerful computing power of AI chips makes these complex calculations easily run and complete in the mobile phone terminal.
< br >
Second, it is safer.
< br >
AI chips are relatively more secure for protecting data.
< br >
Because the calculation of the AI chip is completed in the mobile phone terminal, without uploading to the cloud, this largely avoids the risk of data leakage.
< br >
3. Smarter
< br >
The AI engine can improve the performance of the phone and the efficiency of the task through machine learning such as biometrics, image recognition, user behavior and photography.
< br >
It has self-learning ability, just like you recruit an employee, a 985 graduate with 0 work experience, IQ online, but never set foot in this industry, now you need to teach him by example, a little bit of polish him, let him adapt to your work pace and expression, and because he himself has strong online learning ability, then over time, His presence makes your work more efficient.
< br >
This is why the AI engine is smarter than the normal chip, it is more intelligent and has the ability to learn.
< br >
For example, when Apple's Face ID is verified for the first time, it will observe your front side look up and down, and then record these data, even if you make up, wear a hat, wear glasses, you will not worry about unlocking difficulties, because it will keep learning, and then one day you will find that no matter what hat you change, it can easily complete the unlock. Not because it's starting to unlock everyone, but because your dress has already fooled it.
< br >
For another example, millet mobile phone ai will automatically set different photo modes according to different photo objects, which are the results of intelligent calculation based on user habits.
< br >
ai chips will eventually become smarter and better at serving us over time. Normal chips don't!
