Chinese researchers say they created an AI version of a monkey's brain, and put it on a computer. It has 960 chips ... Sandia National Laboratory is using Hala Point for "advanced brain-scale ...

China unveils Darwin Monkey, the world's first brain-like supercomputer with over 2 billion neurons, marking a major leap in brain-inspired AI computing.

Zhejiang University has unveiled the Darwin Monkey, a groundbreaking brain-inspired computer boasting over 2 billion artificial neurons, rivaling a macaque's brain capacity. This system, powered by ...

Previously, the largest neuromorphic brain-like computer in the world was Intel's Hala Point system, released in April 2024, which featured 1.15 billion neurons.

"A monkey has been able to control a computer with its brain, just FYI," he said, appearing to take Neuralink president Max Kodak by surprise with the announcement.

Scientists have successfully used computer chips to link two monkeys together, allowing one monkey's brain to control the other's body movement. Researchers say they hope their work - partly ...

But the Darwin Monkey is still a step forward. With 2 billion artificial neurons, it's more advanced than Intel's neuromorphic computer announced in April 2024.
