EP30 - The Electric Dream: Neuromorphic Computing and the Brain on a Chip
We marvel at AI that can write poetry and paint masterpieces, assuming it "thinks" like us. But what if our computers, even the ones running AI, are built on a fundamentally different, and far less efficient, blueprint than our own brains? This episode opens the black box of neuromorphic computing to reveal how building a brain on a chip could solve the greatest crisis facing artificial intelligence.
