Neuroscience and artificial intelligence can help improve each other

Chicago Tribune | July 9, 2019

Despite their names, AI technologies and their component systems, such as artificial neural networks, don't have much to do with real brain science. I'm a professor of bioengineering and neurosciences interested in understanding how the brain works as a system - and how we can use that knowledge to design and engineer new machine learning models. In recent decades, brain researchers have learned a huge amount about the physical connections in the brain and about how the nervous system routes information and processes it. (Gabriel A.
