I think we are closer to Jeff Hawkin's intelligent machine than we realize. This memristor definitely seems a big breakthrough for that kind of application.
Thats still a hell of a lot of information in a centimeter. i mean imagine an ipod shuffle with 10 gigs of music on it. seriously, that is pretty impressive.

Wow! 100 gigbits in 1 sq. cm. Not even sure if I like that much music.

Depending on how you math it up, it's only 11-12 GB per square cm. Not knockin the feat, just don't think it's as huge as you thought.

Even with backward compatibility to x86...? :)

not really. the advances for AI should be in making an operating system that behaves as a mind, not ever increasing information storage.
