Why Neuromorphic Computing is the End of the Brute Force Era
For the last decade, the AI revolution has been fuelled by a more-is-more philosophy. To get smarter models, we built bigger data centers, consumed more gigawatts, and pushed standard GPU architecture to its thermal limits. We have, in essence, been trying to simulate the…

Blooket and the Gamified Classroom: Mastery or Mechanics?
If you walk into a middle school classroom today, you won’t hear the scratching of pencils or the hum of a projector. Instead, you’ll likely hear a roar of excitement that sounds more like an esports arena. At the centre of this chaos is Blooket, a platform that…
