AI-powered image recognition could give researchers a new tool in hunt for dark matter.

It sounds fantastical, but it's a reality for the scientists who work at the world's largest particle collider:

The Large Hadron Collider could change that. There, researchers are looking for dark matter and other mysteries using detectors that act like giant 3D digital cameras, taking continuous snapshots of the spray of particles produced by each proton-proton collision. "Most of these images don't have the special signatures we're looking for," Kotwal said."Maybe one in a million is one that we want to save."

His design works by divvying up the task of analyzing each image among a large number of AI engines running simultaneously, built directly onto a silicon chip. The method processes an image in less than 250 nanoseconds, automatically weeding out the uninteresting ones.
