AI Summary
The content discusses a technology that utilizes DNA for both data storage and computing functions. Unlike previous technologies, this new system can handle tasks such as storing, retrieving, computing, erasing, and rewriting data. This advancement could revolutionize data storage and computing capabilities in the future.
Researchers have demonstrated a technology capable of a suite of data storage and computing functions — repeatedly storing, retrieving, computing, erasing or rewriting data — that uses DNA rather than conventional electronics. Previous DNA data storage and computing technologies could complete some but not all of these tasks.
