Biological AI: this company combines actual brain cells with silicon chips for smarter AI The AI Show

    • Technology

If your AI chip requires a life support system, you know you're doing something pretty funky.

In this episode of The AI Show with John Koetsier, I talk to the CEO and CTO of Cortical Labs, who are combining mice neurons with silicon chips, then training their system to play ping pong.

Almost all AI uses silicon chips ... that’s the “artificial” in Artificial intelligence. Brain Chip One uses biological components for potentially faster learning systems.

Is biological computing the future of AI?

And, will it some day be literally correct to say ... "my computer died?"
