Neuromorphic Computing
Northwestern University researchers jet-printed flexible artificial neurons that fire like real brain cells – realistic enough to trigger live mouse neurons – pointing toward neuromorphic chips that could one day cut the punishing energy cost of AI.
Researchers in Texas have created a graphene leaf tattoo that reads a plant’s moisture in real time and can act as an artificial synapse, raising the prospect of forests and fields that monitor fire and drought themselves.
An Indian research team proposes pairing AI with two dozen brain structures so the system develops a personality, sleeps, dreams and eventually dies — a brain-mirroring route to AGI distinct from neuromorphic computing.
