Researchers are on a quest to outsmart and overcome the sophisticated security system of the brain. Julia Robinson reports on some of the approaches being studied.
What is the future of generative AI compute?
— The future of generative AI compute involves embedding AI algorithms into the physics of the world to push the limits of density, spatial efficiency, and speed for AI, creating a full stack of software and hardware specifically designed for AI from first principles.
Chinese researchers say their innovation could lead to hybrid human-robot intelligence.
Researchers at China’s Tianjin University and the Southern University of Science and Technology have reportedly developed a robot with a lab-grown artificial brain.
Brain-on-chip technology has been used to train the machine to perform various tasks, according to local media.

A remarkable discovery in the Siberian permafrost: a 44,000-year-old wolf with preserved stomach contents and organs.
According to a new report, emails between Microsoft and Texas agencies were compromised by suspected Russian-affiliated hackers.
Musk says Grok 2 ‘should exceed current AI on all metrics,’ though Grok 3 is waiting in the wings.
Richie Etwaru is Co-founder & CEO at Mobeus. He’s also a former CTO, CDO & CIO at Fortune 500 firms in Financial Services and Healthcare.
Although generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has been making headlines, another of today’s most tantalizing and controversial topics is the concept of artificial general intelligence (AGI). The idea of AGI —a machine with “the ability to understand, learn, and apply knowledge across a wide range of tasks,” much like a human—has captured the imaginations of scientists, entrepreneurs and science fiction writers alike. However, despite the allure of creating such a machine, a growing body of evidence suggests that AGI will never be realized.
Human intelligence is fundamentally collective and constantly evolving. As individuals, we contribute to a vast pool of knowledge that grows exponentially over time. This collective intelligence isn’t merely the sum of all human knowledge but a complex, interconnected web of ideas, insights and innovations that continuously build upon one another. I’m deliberately excluding human instincts from the dialogue, as this requires another article.
Scientists hooked up brain tissue to a neural interface, allowing it to pass on instructions to a humanoid robot body.
Gravitational wave research has helped scientists learn more about a famous 2,000-year-old mechanical computer.
