This week, we’re bringing you the story of a startup chasing an absolutely fascinating concept, one CEO Rodolfo Rossini told us he believes could revolutionize computing and make his company the next Nvidia. It sounds crazy, but trust me, you want to hear more. The startup is called Vaire Computing and its play is focused on something called reversible computing. Like any new tech it’s complicated, but what you need to know is that reversible computing chips have the potential to be vastly more energy efficient and generate significantly less heat – almost zero, in fact – than traditional silicon. That’s a big deal for the cloud and data center industries, which are struggling to cope with rising power and cooling demands in the face of a wave of AI traffic. Together, we walk through what reversible computing is, what problems it is aiming to solve and what it will mean for current compute titans like Nvidia, Intel and AMD if Vaire’s bet pays off.
