As I understand it, it&amp;#x27;s exactly this. Specifically, representing neurons in a neural network via a probability distribution of logic gates and then collapsing the distribution into the optimal logic gate for a given neuron via hyper-parameter tuning in the form of gradient descent. The author has a few more details in their thesis: https://arxiv.org/abs/2209.00616 Specifically it&amp;#x27;s the training approach that&amp;#x27;s patented. I&amp;#x27;m glad to see that people are trying to improve on his method, so the patent will likely become…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2209.00616/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
