Rainbow-on-a-chip’ could help keep AI energy demands in check — and it was created by accident

A lab accident has led engineers to build a chip that fires a rainbow of powerful laser beams — and it could help data centers better manage skyrocketing volumes of artificial intelligence (AI) data. The new photonics chip contains an industrial-grade laser source paired with a precisely engineered optical circuit that shapes and stabilizes the light before splitting it into …
