Quote:Researchers at UC Santa Barbara successfully constructed a circuit of about 100 artificial synapses, which was proven to perform a simple version of a typical human task like image classification. It is said to be a significant step in the field of Artificial Intelligence. The circuit isn’t even close to human brain because it has very low synapses at 100 compared to 10^15 (one quadrillion) synaptic connections found in the brain but it has still managed to perform the typical human task for the first time.
