Yet despite breakthrough physics and proven technical superiority, these revolutionary accelerators face a reality gap: manufacturing costs, software compatibility barriers, and infrastructure requirements that explain why your next smartphone likely won’t contain analog AI—regardless of how impressive the research results appear.
