Scientists in China have built a new type of computer chip using carbon nanotubes instead of a traditional silicon semiconductor.

They say the new chip could open the door to more energy-efficient artificial intelligence ( AI ) AI models are hugely data-intensive and require massive amounts of computational power to run.

This is why scientists are working on making new components that consume orders of magnitude less energy.
