Oh dear, I loaded that picture and my optical computer read it as a command to eject all cargo, what a clown!I wonder does the OP look like this?
Has Fdev considered building an optical computer?

Nah, the next big step will be a computer based on string theory, once they get the knots out of it

Sounds a bit ropey to me.
The hardest part is finding out the length, no one can guess the length of a piece of string …..
They have awesome multithreading though!
Nothing to see here.
You just have to follow the light

Frontier considered it, but when they realised it would have to run Linux .......
What if this could act as a much weaker coprocessor for applications needing a large expandable single core? Like say, KSP. You could be limited by your outputs. So, maybe it could use the GPU as end compute in some manner. The more GPU's the bigger the effective core? Could you fill out a multi GPU setup and maximize the use. Maybe via the normal bridges they use or otherwise. Maybe a special bridge with an optical connection.

Excuse the necro, but I want to nominate this as the thread of the year 2020!
The Frontier Developments Optical Reasoning Device doesn't excuse the necro, and has sentenced you to 1.577e+18 nanoseconds in the cyber-gulag.
Relpsi has just given me a ~50 year cyber sentence, so I guess this is goodbye forum, hopefully see y'all in the Star Citizen beta forum in 2063+ ?
As an added bonus, Cyberpunk 2077 might be a polished product by that time
Either that or he's made a quintrillion dollhairs out of selling the idea to the NSA? Although somehow I dn't think the idea of using a monitor as an optical processor is going to make much impact...
There’s far too much science in the opening post, I never stood a chance...
