Enthusiasts of mapping the human connectome imagine a future in which people could achieve a form of immortality by uploading their memories into robots. One scientist is starting on a much more ...

To address these questions, Luppi and his coauthors analyzed two sets of neuroimaging data from past studies to map out the ways the human brain changes when taking 10 mind-altering drugs.

What happened A consortium of scientists published the first complete map of a fruit fly's brain Wednesday in the journal Nature. Identifying and charting the 130,000 neurons and 50 million ...

With $55 million, a collection of frozen human brains and robots capable of processing 192 brain slices a day, the Allen Brain Institute is attempting to do the impossible: systematically map out ...

Comparing connections. To reduce this mind-boggling complexity into more practical science, Kasthuri is starting (relatively) small. Where other high-profile connectome projects have focused on ...

I love maps.There's something about cartography that lends itself to visualizing much more than land and geography. I've previously looked at how the London tube map was appropriated as a visual ...

Key points. Large Language Models (LLMs) are advanced digital maps of human knowledge, not just word predictors. Their development involves pre-training and fine-tuning with human feedback.

Large Language Models (LLMs) are revolutionizing our understanding of knowledge; they're not just word predictors but cognitive maps shaping the future of thought and innovation.
