Researchers are training neural networks to make decisions more like humans would. This science of human decision-making is only just being applied to machine learning, but developing a neural network ...

AI became powerful because of interacting mechanisms: neural networks, backpropagation and reinforcement learning, attention, ...

Humans& Inc., a three-month-old artificial intelligence startup, today announced that it has closed a $480 million seed round at a $4.48 billion valuation.

Sometimes in the rush to explore our interactions with neural nets (often in the form of LLMs) we forget to think about our own operating system and how it works. Of course, scientists did spend a lot ...

Scientists rebuilt human brain circuits in the lab and discovered that the thalamus acts as a central organizer of cortical wiring. The findings offer new insight into how brain networks form and why ...

A new platform, Moltbook, claims to host 1.4 million AI agents in a closed society. Discover why this "hive mind" signals a ...

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 ...

Why do we sometimes keep eating even when we're full and other times turn down food completely? Why do we crave salty things ...

In 1943, a pair of neuroscientists were trying to describe how the human nervous system works when they accidentally laid the foundation for artificial intelligence. In their mathematical framework ...
