Science

Scientists have created an artificial synapse that works with water and salt, mimicking the medium used by our brains. This could lead to more efficient and energy-saving brain-inspired computers. The device, called an iontronic memristor, consists of a microchannel filled with water and salt, and can process complex information by altering the concentration of ions in response to electrical impulses. This research is a significant step towards computers that can replicate the capabilities of the human brain more accurately.

It should also be noted that damage to this specific area of the brain within the cerebral cortex can cause sociopathic behaviour. Additionally, this induces the “slow and insidious loss of the capacity for moral rationality.”
