Artificial General Intelligence and Hybrid Intelligence
The development of artificial intelligence is accelerating: some scientists predict that within the next few years, machines will become smarter than even the smartest humans. Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is a field of artificial intelligence (AI) research in which scientists strive to create a computer system that is generally smarter than humans. These hypothetical systems could possess a degree of self-awareness and self-control, including the ability to edit their own code, and be able to learn to solve problems like humans, without specialized training.
Astronauts on the ISS are looking for solutions to problems that may arise during a long flight
The flight of Russian cosmonauts and NASA astronauts, participants of the 70th long-term expedition, continues at the International Space Station. A long stay in space causes physical changes in the human body. For example, the condition of bones and muscles deteriorates. Therefore, the health of astronauts is closely studied by doctors and scientists.
Scientists have grown a mini-biocomputer from human stem cells – Brainoware
Bioengineers from Indiana University in the US have combined lab-grown human brain tissue with microelectrodes. The scientists called their creation Brainoware. The biocomputer is in its early stages of development, but can already perform complex tasks such as voice recognition. Lead researcher Dr Feng Guo hopes his lighter-than-usual software will help advance artificial intelligence technology. This could also mean that AI hardware uses much less power than using silicon chips alone.
