The blending of biological and artificial “computing” is a topic that stretches back to the 1940s and 50s. Now, Cortical Labs has successfully developed a brain-on-a-chip computer primarily designed ...

As prominent artificial intelligence (AI) researchers eye limits to the current phase of the technology, a different approach ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Journalist, analyst, author, podcaster. The world’s first “code-deployable” biological computer is now for sale. The Cortical Labs ...

The world, and countless generations of interactions with it, coaxed our brains to evolve in the unique way that humans perceive reality. And yet, thanks to the past century's developments in ...

Researchers are no longer just simulating brains in silicon, they are wiring living human neurons into machines and asking them to compute. Tiny clusters of brain cells, grown from stem cells and ...

Scientists are experimenting with ways to integrate brain cells into computer processors. The technology could help conserve energy. FinalSpark's Multi-Electrode Arrays (MEAs) incorporate four human ...

The CL1 computer is the first in the world that combines human neurons with a silicon chip. It could be used in disease modeling and drug discovery before it expires after six months. When you ...

Source: Via Tenor The human brain has been described as the most complex structure in the universe (Dolan, 2007; see also Pang, 2023). Researchers estimate that we have over 100 trillion connections ...

Recently, a neurotech company called Paradromics made headlines by successfully implanting its brain-computer interface (BCI) in a human for the first time. The procedure happened at the University of ...

The Challenge with BCIs: Inflammation, scarring, and programmed cell death undermine performance over time Implantable electrodes within the brain have enabled remarkable achievements—e.g., paralyzed ...
