What if the very foundation of today’s AI models — the artificial neuron itself — was about to be reinvented, making systems dramatically faster, cheaper, and smaller?

Most leaders are pouring more data, GPUs, and money into existing neural-network designs, yet still face rising costs and energy demands. In this episode, Dr. Rory Brenner and Ralph Crewe of Perforated AI explain how their Carnegie Mellon–born approach updates 80-year-old AI assumptions and could open a “blue ocean” of innovation for anyone building their own models.

• Hear how Perforated AI’s dendrite-inspired technology shrinks model size and cuts cloud costs by up to 38×.

• Learn why smaller, more efficient models could unlock true edge computing for AI applications.

• Discover how early adopters can partner with Perforated AI to pilot this paradigm-shifting architecture before it hits the mainstream.
