For years, the idea of building a working replica of the human brain has lived comfortably in the realm of science fiction. A ...

A new AI-assisted brain atlas that can help visualize the human brain in unprecedented detail has been developed by UCL researchers, in a major step forward for neuroscience and neuroimaging. The ...

Derived from human pluripotent stem cells, the 3D models allow scientists to study unique properties of the human brain. Researchers use cortical organoids to answer fundamental questions such as how ...

A team of researchers has built an AI system that predicts activity across the entire human brain from movies, speech, and ...

For Martin Schrimpf, the promise of artificial intelligence is not in the tasks it can accomplish. It’s in what AI might reveal about human intelligence. He is working to build a “digital twin” of the ...

Recently, Nvidia founder Jensen Huang, whose company builds the chips powering today’s most advanced artificial intelligence systems, remarked: “The thing that’s really, really quite amazing is the ...

Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch the thalamus and cortex interact in real time. They found that the thalamus ...

The potential to create personalised digital “twins” of your brain and body is a hot topic in neuroscience and medicine today. These computer models are designed to simulate how parts of your brain ...

A new, more life-like physical model of microscopic nerve fibers called axons could speed up the discovery of medicines for multiple sclerosis and other degenerative brain diseases, suggests a new ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. I write about the big picture of artificial intelligence. It is not possible to understand the long-term future of artificial ...
