Meet KiloCore, a 1,000-core Processor So Efficient It Could run on a AA Battery
This monstrous CPU is 100 times more power-efficient than today's laptops

If you were impressed by Intel’s first-ever 10-core consumer processor—and there was a lot to like!—well, check this monster out. Researchers at the University of California, Davis, have created a new processor with a ridonkulous 1,000 CPU cores. And the chip’s so power-efficient that it could be run by a single AA battery, the team claims.
Seriously.
