Learning Algorithms Scale Very Well

analog, velocized chips are relatively slow compared to digital electronics in the sense that they are analog ultimately. To communicate between chips, just like the way the brain does, you have to use these long-distance connections. And in the case of these analog, Velocized chips, you can basically convert it into a digital bus. Send the information using some protocol. That was the 80s, and that was a very exciting time. But once we realized that learning was possible in multi-layer networks, then a bunch of other learning algorithms were discovered within years.
