The Latest Developments in AI and Neuroscience.

Researchers built an artificial intelligence model to better understand the mechanisms underlying memory formation and consolidation in the brain during rest or sleep. The AI model emulates the replay process of neuronal sequences in the hippocampus, prioritizing familiar experiences and those associated with rewards. The AI agent was found to learn spatial information more effectively when replaying these prioritized sequences, offering valuable insight into the way our brains learn and process information.
