Researchers reveal how modeling the human brain’s hidden wiring could push AI beyond its current limits into human-like cognition.
In 1979, biologist Francis Crick claimed it would be impossible to create an accurate diagram of the brain’s wiring and neuronal activity—even within just a cubic millimeter of brain tissue.
Brain dynamics and cognition share genetic roots. Criticality may guide future brain health research. A recent study published on June 24 in PNAS presents strong evidence that brain criticality—the de ...
While today’s generative AI tools and LLMs are powerful enough to process hundreds of thousands of words simultaneously, the human brain’s language areas process words serially, or one at a time.
