Will Supercapacitors Come to AI's Rescue?

Cars That Think

However, much like a phone battery degrades after multiple recharge cycles, lithium-ion batteries degrade quickly when charging and discharging at this high rate. And Delta Electronics is selling the Power Capacitance Shelf , a 1-rack-unit-size bank of lithium-ion capacitors capable of supporting a 15 kilowatt load for up to 5 seconds.
