What changed
Integrated programmable digital spiking cores, colocated memory/computation and event-routed intercore/interchip links in a million-unit silicon system.
Scientific scope
Integrated programmable digital spiking cores, colocated memory/computation and event-routed intercore/interchip links in a million-unit silicon system. Artificial computational units, not biological neurons or a demonstrated human brain model. Configurability is not unrestricted on-chip learning. Reported power belongs to the specified vision workload and operating conditions, not every network or a universal efficiency ratio. Off-chip scaling, finite connectivity and global discrete-time coordination remain resource constraints.
Evidence
The linked original sources describe the stated contribution and its evidence limits. WRS has not independently rerun the experiments or certified a proof.
