Learning is often thought to require a brain. But learning is a broad concept that does not necessarily depend on neurons. If ...

A recent publication in Nature Machine Intelligence really got me thinking. In this study, researchers created an artificial system that not only simulates but also behaves like our brain. This ...

Researchers have developed a learning mechanism that uses the natural variability of neural activity—often dismissed as ...

Gear-obsessed editors choose every product we review. We may earn commission if you buy from a link. Why Trust Us? AI neural networks require about one million times more power than human brains use.

Artificial intelligence is transforming how information is generated, processed and stored, but its rapid expansion is also ...

AI reveals a striking two-speed cleanup system that helps the sleeping brain clear away harmful waste.

New research from the University of St Andrews, the University of Copenhagen and Drexel University has developed AI computational models that predict the degeneration of neural networks in amyotrophic ...

A neural network is a machine learning (ML) model designed to process data in a way that mimics the function and structure of the human brain. Neural networks are intricate networks of interconnected ...

Neuro-symbolic AI combines neural networks with rules-based symbolic processing techniques to improve artificial intelligence systems' accuracy, explainability and precision. The neural aspect ...

Meet PitchFly, WIRED’s latest editorial recruit. He has 165,112 neurons, and they’re all trained to generate story ideas. A sampling of his early output: “The Hidden Weather Problem Inside ...
