DARPA Wants to Build Computer Systems Modeled after Human Brain

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency has introduced a new program called SyNAPSE, which aims to develop computer systems that simulate important functions of the human brain.

Currently, computer systems can only process information according to their programming. SyNAPSE’s goal is to make unmanned systems and electronic devices more efficient, flexible and enable them to understand,…
