With just their input cables, human neurons can perform difficult logic calculations previously only seen in entire neural networks. To restate: human neurons are far more powerful devices than originally thought. And if deep learning algorithms - the AI method loosely based on the brain that’s taken our world by storm - take note, they can be too.

Those are unconventional, fighting words. Read more about Scientists Discovered ‘Mini-Computers’ in Human Neurons - and That’s Great News for Artificial Intelligence
