A new study suggests AI systems could be a lot more efficient. Researchers were able to shrink an AI vision model to 1/1000th ...

After training neurons to play Pong, the team is back, and this time the brain cells are slaying demons with super shotguns.

Researchers at Australian start-up Cortical Labs have taught human neurons grown on a chip to play the classic Doom game. In 2021, they had already used 800,000 neurons to play Pong. Now, with four ...

"If the neurons fire in a specific pattern, the Doom guy shoots." The post Researchers Get Human Brain Cells Running Doom ...

Some older adults with exceptional memory grow far more new neurons in the hippocampus, while Alzheimer’s brains show almost ...

Adults whose brains still have strong neuron production seem to have better memory and cognitive function than do those in ...

A couple of years ago, a company called Cortical Labs released a video that showed a simplified version of Pong being played by a culture of human neurons in a Petri dish. The idea that a bunch of ...

Researchers have demonstrated that human brain cells can play DOOM, showcasing a major breakthrough in the advancements of wetware technology.

Using the age-old medium of Doom, boffins just gave us a look into our cyborg future by making the game run on wetware ...

New research suggests that super-agers generate twice as many neurons as typical older adults. But you don't have to be a ...

While neurogenesis—the growth of new brain cells—typically slows with age, superagers produce new neurons in the hippocampus at twice the rate of healthy older adults. In contrast, individuals with ...

“SuperAgers” with superb memories in their 80s and 90s produce more new brain cells than people some 50 years younger, according to a new study.
