An integrated spiking artificial neuron, with rich neuron functionality, single-transistor footprints, and low energy consumption for neuromorphic computing systems, can be created by stacking one ...

Researchers have developed a "laser-powered artificial neuron," which is like a supercharged version of a biological neuron. This chip-based laser neuron mimics how human neurons work, but it's ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Journalist, analyst, author, podcaster. The world’s first “code-deployable” biological computer is now for sale. The Cortical Labs ...

Research reveals why AI systems can't become conscious—and what radically different computing substrates would be needed to ...

Cortical Labs, a startup based in Australia, has developed what it describes as a "code-deployable biological computer." Called CL1, the technology is a type of synthetic biological intelligence ...

An Australian startup has unveiled the world’s first commercial biological computer that runs on living human brain cells. Melbourne-based Cortical Labs launched the CL1 at Mobile World Congress in ...

Graphics processing units (GPUs), the expensive computer chips made by companies like Nvidia, AMD, and Sima.ai, are no longer the only way to train and deploy artificial intelligence. Biological Black ...

Researchers developed a chip-based quantum-dot laser that emulates a biological graded neuron while achieving a signal processing speed of 10 GBaud. WASHINGTON — Researchers have developed a ...

Most people wouldn’t give Geobacter sulfurreducens a second look. The bacteria was first discovered in a ditch in rural Oklahoma. But the lowly microbe has a superpower. It grows protein nanotubes ...
