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 ...

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 ...

Scientists have re-created a pain pathway in the brain by growing four key clusters of human nerve cells in a dish. This laboratory model could be used to help explain certain pain syndromes, and ...

Neural and computational evidence reveals that real-world size is a temporally late, semantically grounded, and hierarchically stable dimension of object representation in both human brains and ...

Axons in the thalamus (pink) extended toward the cortex, while those in the cortex (green) extended toward the thalamus at 14 days post-fusion. A Japanese research team has successfully reproduced the ...

Have you ever reached out in a virtual world—whether in a game, a training simulation, or even a video call—and felt the absence of touch? It’s a strange limitation, isn’t it? No matter how visually ...

An artificial neural network (ANN) that is said to be more like the human neural system, on which today's AI systems are loosely modeled. Rather than each neuron sending out a continuous value, the ...

“Nervous system training refers to any method designed to improve how quickly and efficiently your brain communicates with your muscles. It’s not just about getting stronger, it’s about getting faster ...
