Our mushy brains seem a far cry from the solid silicon chips in computer processors, but scientists have a long history of comparing the two. As Alan Turing put it in 1952: “We are not interested in ...

The deep learning field has been dominated by “large models” requiring massive computational resources and energy, leading to unsustainable environmental and economic challenges. To address this, ...

The world, and countless generations of interactions with it, coaxed our brains to evolve in the unique way that humans perceive reality. And yet, thanks to the past century's developments in ...

When faced with the same evidence, each individual can reach a different decision. How billions of specialized cells make split-second choices has largely been an open research question. In a new ...
