Founded by three MIT alumni, Lightmatter aims to revolutionize chip communication and calculation using photonic technologies.

Lightmatter’s Passage chip utilizes light’s speed and bandwidth benefits, akin to fiber optic cables, for efficient processor interconnection.Lightmatter leverages light's speed and bandwidth to connect processors, mirroring fiber optic cables' data transmission over long distances.is made possible by our ability to fit ever-smaller transistors onto a chip. Experts opine that strategy is finally reaching its limits.

The Envise chip from Lightmatter combines the aspects of computing that electrons are good at, like memory, with the abilities ofSeveral calculations can be done simultaneously with photonics because the data is being received in several light hues. “In one color, you could have a photo of a dog. In another color, you could have a photo of a cat.

“By 2040, some predict that around 80 percent of all energy usage on the planet will be devoted to data centers and computing, and AI is going to be a huge fraction of that. When you look at computing deployments for training these large AI models, they’re headed toward using hundreds of megawatts. Their power usage is on the scale of cities,” said Harris.
