"The new device is built from arrays of resistive random-access memory (RRAM) cells.... The team was able to combine the speed of analog computation with the accuracy normally associated with digital processing. Crucially, the chip was manufactured using a commercial production process, meaning it could potentially be mass-produced."

This seems like promising technology, but the figures they are providing are almost certainly fiction.

This has all the hallmarks of a team of researchers looking to score an R&D budget.
