I’m calling neuromorphic computing the most important computer engineering research in the world. That’s right, more important than quantum computing (you heard it here first!)
So what is neuromorphic computing? How is it inspired by biology? Where is it taking us? Why are the opportunities so vast? How is it fundamental to future directions in artifical intelligence? And why does it matter SO much to the future of this planet?
Welcome to FutureBites with Dr. Bruce McCabe, futurist and keynote speaker, where we interview scientists and explore pathways to a better future. In this episode, I’m talking to Dr Alexandre Marcireau at the International Centre for Neuromorphic Systems (ICNS) at the University of Western Sydney. Alex generously took me on a tour of his lab to see his inventions, including neuromorphic cameras that are currently circulating in the International Space Station. Afterwards he sat down with me to share his views on the future. He’s an extraordinary invidividual, and very much tuned-in to all the planet-scale benefits his technology has to offer. I know you’ll enjoy this one.
And when I say most important, I mean it. Its early days and there is a LOT of hard work to be done, but if you are investing in computer engineering, or studying it, or building AI systems (who isn’t?) or you happen to be manufacturing computer chips, this IS your future.
As always, I’ll add a post to the FutureBites page soon with additional thoughts and further reading, as well as a copy of the full interview transcript. Enjoy!

See you in the future!
