Nvidia’s founder and CEO Jensen Huang speaks during the annual Nvidia GPU Technology Conference JOSH EDELSON/AFP via Getty Images Humanoid robots have just begun stepping into Amazon warehouses and Mercedes-Benz automotive factories. Now, they are being recruited for an even more ambitious effort – the creation of artificial general intelligence …

Noland Arbaugh can play chess using his Neuralink implant Neuralink Neuralink, the brain-computer interface company founded by Elon Musk, has revealed the identity of its first patient, who says the firm’s implant has “changed his life”. However, it is not yet clear with Nueralink has done anything beyond replicating existing …

Researchers wanting to make use of locusts’ keen sense of smell to sniff out certain chemicals have found that injecting their brains with nanoparticles seems to make odour identification more reliable Source link

Neuralink was founded by Elon Musk to create brain-computer interfaces Costfoto/NurPhoto/Shutterstock What is Neuralink? Neuralink was founded in 2016 by Elon Musk, who also runs SpaceX, Tesla and X, formerly Twitter, to create brain-computer-interfaces: tiny chips implanted directly into the brain that allow people to communicate with computers by thought …

An artist’s impression of the DeepSouth supercomputer A supercomputer capable of simulating, at full scale, the synapses of a human brain is set to boot up in Australia next year, in the hopes of understanding how our brains process massive amounts of information while consuming relatively little power. The machine, …

Brain organoids growing in a Petri dish Science Photo Library / Alamy Balls of human brain cells linked to a computer have been used to perform a very basic form of speech recognition. The hope is that such systems will use far less energy for AI tasks than silicon chips. …

Zubin Kanga describes himself as a pianist, composer and technologist. In his latest work, Cyborg Pianist, which premiered at Kings Place, London, he commissioned composers to create new works that fused cutting-edge technology with classical piano. Using technologies such as MiMu motion detection gloves, brainwave sensors and artificial intelligence, Kanga …

The “Stentrode” brain implant Synchron Rodney Gorham, a 63-year-old Australian, has always been a music fan. In a recent WhatsApp conversation with New Scientist, he shared his thoughts on his most memorable live event – “AC/DC in their prime”. But more remarkable than that concert is the implant that allows …

An AI recreated a clip of Pink Floyd’s song Another Brick in the Wall, Part 1 from brain recordings Smith Collection/Gado/Alamy An artificial intelligence has created a passable cover of a Pink Floyd song by analysing brain activity recorded while people listened to the original. The findings further our understanding …

Microscopy image showing live Caenorhabditis elegans worms with 3D-printed shapes Alexandre Benedetto Nematode worms given glowing shapes inside their bodies show how electronics can be directly 3D printed within a living organism. The technique could one day be used to create and maintain implants or computer-brain interfaces in humans. Electronic …
