I thought immediately of LightOns work: https://lighton.ai/photonic-computing-for-ai/

And this is very much already a vetted approach. They use photonics circuits to implement random projections, which can be used to speed up t linear algebra in modern ML workflows. It’s no magic monocle, rather a pretty interesting co-processor racked away in some data center.
