Previously, we examined the remarkable disparity between the intellectual capacities of human beings and primates. While our closest relatives, the chimpanzee, possess traits and characteristics that ...

Neuralink trained a monkey to play Pong using only a brain implant — no controller, no movement, just neural signals. In this video, we break down how the chip reads brain activity, how the monkey was ...

A new study suggests AI systems could be a lot more efficient. Researchers were able to shrink an AI vision model to 1/1000th ...

Pictures like these drove the large AI models’ responses “well beyond the response range for normal images,” according to the study. What does it take to make AI that can pass as human? Try massive ...

A human brain consumes less power than a light bulb. An artificial intelligence system uses vastly more energy to do the same tasks. NPR's Jon Hamilton reports on new research that hints at how living ...

Scientists have created an AI version of a monkey brain that recognizes images without requiring the massive computing power of existing AI systems. A human brain consumes less power than a light bulb ...

Some sex differences in brain-connectivity patterns become more pronounced with age, according to new research. Researchers studying brain-imaging data from people aged between 8 and 100 found that ...

There are some stories the internet collectively decides to care about. This week, it's a little monkey named Punch. Punch — or more colloquially, Punch-kun — is a baby macaque at Ichikawa City Zoo in ...
