Das positronische Gehirn ist fast da … „neuromorphes Computing“ gewinnt an Bedeutung

I had never heard of “neuromorphic computing” before, but it struck me as moving AI research more towards emulating a human brain… which then reminded me of Asimov’s “posittronic brain” concept that he used as the basis for his robots.

We were already approaching the “train, not program” type paradigm implied by his novels. Now this (neuron cluster) type approach makes it that much more similar to Positronic brains, closer to human brains, and further away from conventional computer science.
