Neuromorphic computing 'roadmap' envisions analog path to simulating human brain

[petskup]

(Phys.org) —In the field of neuromorphic engineering, researchers study computing techniques that could someday mimic human cognition. Electrical engineers at the Georgia Institute of Technology recently published a "roadmap" that details innovative analog-based techniques that could make it possible to build a practical neuromorphic computer.

you can even play games to stimulate your brain, something like lumosity

interesting really

human congnitive fuctions are quite powerfull but our brains aren't perfect, while it is interesting to understand and add such functions to computers I think, computers should have their way of doing things, quantum computing might unlock new horizons, but today we huge quantum computers with our understanding of todays computing, instead of taking a whole new aproch
