Google DeepMind's virtual AI Brain brings can lead to new insights about our own brain

Google DeepMind is a next generation AI that almost can think for it self like our brains do! Google has been working on AI models that can simulate aspects of the brain. However, it's not a single 'virtual AI brain'. It mainly can mimic movements by understanding how the brain functions when a certain movement is made. Is can even anticipate on new situations that never happend before and respond with the wright movements. Their recent work involved a virtual rat with an AI-powered 'brain' designed to mimic how real rats move. This helps us understand the neural circuits related to movement. It's more like a specific tool for understanding the brain, not a replacement for it. The virtual rat by Google DeepMind This rat is a fascinating project that pushes the boundaries of artificial intelligence and neuroscience. What is it? Researchers from DeepMind collaborated with Harvard University to create a virtual rodent with an AI-powered 'brain'. This virtua...
