Oriole Networks, a UCL spinout, has raised £10mn in seed funding to build AI “super brains” that promise to accelerate the training of Large Language Models (LLMs).
Founded in 2023 by UCL scientists, the startup has developed a new method that harnesses the power of light to connect thousands of AI chips. This results in a network of chips, where the power of each individual GPU is combined to form a “super brain.”
According to James Regan, CEO at Oriole Networks, this “enables the direct connection of a very large number of nodes enabling it to function as a single machine.”
