AI Gets a Brain Boost: Scientists Create ‘Thinking’ Device Using Just Water and Salt

by

Scientists have achieved a significant step towards creating artificial brain cells by developing an “iontronic memristor” which mimics a synapse, the connection point between neurons. An international team from Utrecht University (Netherlands) and Sogang University (South Korea) has created artificial neurological junctions, replicating synapses using a simple water and salt solution. This development is seen … Read more

We’re one step closer to replicating the human brain

by

Scientists from the Netherlands and South Korea have just built a device dubbed “iontronic memristor (memory resistor),” or in other words, an artificial synapse. This device, just a little bit wider than a human hair, mimics the part of the brain that helps us think and learn. This isn’t the first time scientists have tried … Read more
