| 2026 | Hardwired-Neuron Language Processing Units as General-Purpose Cognitive SubstratesabstractThe rapid advancement of Large Language Models (LLMs) has established language as a core general-purpose cognitive substrate, driving the demand for specialized Language Processing Units (LPUs) tailored for LLM inference. To overcome the growing energy consumption of LLM inference systems, this paper proposes a Hardwired-Neurons Language Processing Unit (HNLPU), which physically hardwires LLM weight parameters into the computational fabric, achieving several orders of magnitude computational efficiency improvement by extreme specialization. However, a significant challenge still lies in the scale of modern LLMs. A straightforward hardwiring of GPT-OSS-120B would require fabricating photomask sets valued at over 6 billion dollars, rendering this straightforward solution economically impractical.
