A team of neuroscientists investigates communication pathways in the brain and predicts intelligence. A new study approach uses machine learning to improve our conceptual understanding of intelligence ...

A new study published in the journal Cerebral Cortex provides evidence that differences in general intelligence may be partly explained by the density of neurites within certain brain connections, and ...

The universe has no brain. It has no gray matter, no nervous system, no neurons firing electrical impulses—and yet, that physical structure may not be where intelligence and consciousness actually ...

For more than a decade, scientists have been creating artificial brain tissue, known as brain organoids, in the lab and integrating them with computer chips. A new study in China took this idea one ...

Have you ever heard the expression, “Use it or lose it”? Nowhere does this idiom apply more than to the brain. Sure, the brain isn’t a muscle, but to keep it sharp, it still needs consistent neural ...

There’s no question that AI systems have accomplished some impressive feats, mastering games, writing text, and generating convincing images and video. That’s gotten some people talking about the ...

Bruce the kea is missing his upper beak, giving the olive green parrot a look of perpetual surprise. But scientists are the astonished ones. The typical kea (Nestor notabilis) sports a long, sharp ...

Recent developments in neuroscience and brain-inspired artificial intelligence have opened up new possibilities in understanding intelligence. Now, a research team led by Tianzi Jiang at the Institute ...

Electrical and computer engineers have developed a 'Super-Turing AI,' which operates more like the human brain. This new AI integrates certain processes instead of separating them and then migrating ...
