Stealth Startup Kepler Computing Says It Cracked the AI Memory Shortage

Kepler Computing, a stealth startup led by CEO Debo Olaosebikan and CTO Sasi Manipatruni, says it developed a ferroelectric composite material that boosts memory density while cutting power needs, and it's already working with GlobalFoundries to manufacture it. The claim lands as AI data centers have doubled SSD and hard drive prices over the past year and the US government has committed up to $245 million toward Kepler's technology through the CHIPS Act. ============================================================== Kepler Computing says it has found a way around one of AI's nastiest hardware bottlenecks: memory. The hard part now is proving that a clever material...
