INTRODUCTION
1. Neuromorphic computing is a new computing paradigm inspired by the
workings of the human brain.
2.It involves the use of artificial neural networks that mimic the structure
and function of biological neurons.
3. These networks are implemented in specialized hardware that is
designed to optimize the performance of neural computations.
4. Neuromorphic computing is particularly well-suited for tasks such as
pattern recognition, classification, and sensory processing.
5. Unlike traditional digital computing, which relies on fixed algorithms,
neuromorphic computing is more flexible and adaptable, making it ideal for
handling complex and dynamic data.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NEUROMORPHIC COMPUTING AND
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
AI is a broad field, encompassing various techniques and technologies used to
replicate human-like intelligence in computers.
Neuromorphic computing is a specialized approach to computing that is inspired by
the brain's structure and functioning.
Neuromorphic computing is designed to process information more naturally and
efficiently, with less power and greater speed. Furthermore, neuromorphic computing
can adapt and learn independently, whereas traditional Al requires human
intervention to improve its performance.

Conclusion
Neuromorphic computing is an exciting
field that has the potential to
revolutionize many fields. It aims to
replicate the structure and function of
the human brain. Neuromorphic
computing systems can be used in
robotics, medical diagnosis, and
autonomous vehicles. However, there
are several challenges that researchers
face in neuromorphic computing. These
challenges include power consumption,
hardware limitations, and programming
complexity. Despite these challenges,
neuromorphic computing has the
potential to change the world in ways
