Google DeepMind's AI Rat Brains Could Make Robots Scurry Like the Real Thing.
To make robots more agile, scientists are looking to train the algorithms that control them on the recorded activity of biological brains.
Tweaking connections in those areas changed motor responses across a variety of behaviors, suggesting these neural signals are involved in walking, running, climbing, and other movements. Compared to an older computational model used to decode brain networks, the AI could better simulate neural signals in the virtual rat across multiple physical tasks. But it does let neuroscientists “zoom in” on their favorite brain region and test hypotheses quickly and easily compared to traditional lab experiments, which often take weeks to months.
