100-core processor created by MIT, to be released later this year
We sit here as consumers, feeling content with quad-core processors in our computers (or maybe eight, if you are feeling particularly greedy). But 100 processors on a single chip? That's exactly what silicon manufacturer Tilera has done, and it's coming later this year.

As we keep edging towards Skynet self sufficient artificial intelligence, MIT have taken a considerable step closer with their take on a Neuronal chip, mimicking the function of a synapse in the brain.
