You are right. With IBM we can follow how from the chess playing Big Blue (weak AI) over Jeopardy mastering Watson (stronger weak AI) they now pushed hardware development together with HRL and developed the newest SyNAPSE chip. IBM pushes their weak AIs to get stronger and stronger and now leave the path of von Neumann computers into the future to get even stronger AIs. I expect that IBM will follow the Watson/von Neumann and its new neurocomputational path in parallel for several more years.
