It’s quite the understatement to say that at this point in time we don’t quite understand how even the tiniest brain works exactly. Much of this is due to the sheer complexity and scale of these ...

Harnessing the muscle of one of the world's fastest supercomputers, researchers have built one of the largest and most detailed biophysically realistic brain simulations of an animal ever. This ...

The technology is still in its infancy. But its trajectory suggests that ethical conversations may become pressing far sooner than expected. These “biocomputers” are still in their early days. They ...

What would it mean to simulate a human brain? Today’s most powerful computing systems now contain enough computational firepower to run simulations of billions of neurons, comparable to the ...

Researchers have created one of the most detailed virtual mouse cortex simulations ever achieved by combining massive biological datasets with the extraordinary power of Japan’s Fugaku supercomputer.

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. I write about the big picture of artificial intelligence. We stand at the cusp of a massive technology paradigm shift that ...

In 2024, researchers completed the first-ever map of the circuitry of a fruit fly’s brain. Despite its diminutive size, the organ packs almost 500 feet of wiring and 54.5 million synapses into the ...
