Volantis announces $88 million Series A to tackle AI's memory bottleneck with optics

Volantis announced an $88 million Series A and says it is using optics to address AI's memory bottleneck. It says the approach could enable inference at up to 10,000 tokens per second per user for large models. The company also reports sending data more than 10 times farther than equally tiny electrical wires inside a chip package.
