Many Possible Futures: How Dopamine in the Brain Might Inform AI That Adapts Quickly to Change | Champalimaud Foundation
What if your brain had a built-in map – not of places, but of possible futures? Researchers at the Champalimaud Foundation (CF) blend neuroscience and artificial intelligence (AI) to reveal that populations of dopamine neurons in the brain don’t just track…
A group of brain cells have been found to act as a “disappointment meter” | Researchers describe a specific group of neurons in the mouse brain that become active when the animal anticipates a reward but earns less than expected, or nothing at all.
