Place holder....
RN Future Tense had a piece on the "Human Brain Project" which in itslef is notabale, humans have been working on Artificial Intelligence" natural language Processing etal for ... hmmmm hundreds of years. ( depending where you draw that line)
[ say the middleish 1800's ]

Spin states are inherent to electrons, which are constantly spinning, imparting a momentum to their electrical charge which can be oriented “up” or “down”. Such spin-polarized electrons can be used to encode digital ones and zeros using much less energy than just piling up charge on a capacitor. Ideally, a single electron could be used to store a digital one as “up” spin and a digital zero as “down” spin, enabling the ultimate downsizing for parallel processors to one-bit-per-electron. And for intrinsically parallel applications, such as emulating the billions of neurons in the human brain, the super low power achieved by spin-polarized digital encodings could enable the ultimate parallel processing applications of the future.

Ah the holy Grail.. Analogue and Digital together....
In the Algorithm and the storage.

The memristors and "spin"  are the partial breakthrough here.

Hmmm maybe the singularity is closer than I thought !
