IBM has announced it will lead a US government-funded collaboration to make electronic circuits that mimic brains.
Part of a field called "cognitive computing", the research will bring together neurobiologists, computer and materials scientists and psychologists.
As a first step in its research the project has been granted $4.9m (£3.27m) from US defence agency Darpa.
The resulting technology could be used for large-scale data analysis, decision making or even image recognition.
"The mind has an amazing ability to integrate ambiguous information across the senses, and it can effortlessly create the categories of time, space, object, and interrelationship from the sensory data," says Dharmendra Modha, the IBM scientist who is heading the collaboration.
"There are no computers that can even remotely approach the remarkable feats the mind performs," he said.
"The key idea of cognitive computing is to engineer mind-like intelligent machines by reverse engineering the structure, dynamics, function and behaviour of the brain."
Capcom is doing an amazing job treating fans with lots of info and goodies of their favorite games. Dragon Dogma’s Dark Arisen is well on its well as well. New screenshots and footage of the game’s DLC have arisen at the Tokyo Game Show. There will be game modes and content on the way to coincide with the DLC.
So hyped for this. This dlc and dark souls dlc for consoles will keep me busy for a long time.
From Software published an extended version from the Ninja Blade TGS 08 trailer. Enjoy.

Howdy people. You know, if there is one thing that Core i7 processors will drive upwards .. it'll be sales of DDR3 memory. See the processor now has a memory controller integrated into it's core logic, and the good thing is .. it's designed for high frequency DDR3 memory. In fact it loves it so much that Intel decided to design a triple channel memory controller, which makes a big difference.
We understand, it's a bit of a bold move by being forced from 2 DIMM modules towards three in your PC, but trust me when I say .. it's worth the effort. The memory performance without any doubt is making a difference on the new Core i7 platform managing it's overall performance increase, and this is the reason why you have seen many press-releases from memory vendors releasing new triple channel ready memory kits.
Very blunt, a triple channel memory kit is nothing other than high frequency, low voltage DIMMs that you guys already know, the difference is that that there's now three DIMMs in the packaging.
Now I've been using Core i7 triple memory in several flavors already, and guys .. even if you won't purchase the fastest memory available in the block, the difference is orgasmic. Today will test a triple memory kit from none other than OCZ technology, renowned for their speedy part we'll take a look at their OCZ DDR3 PC3-12800 Gold Low-Voltage Triple Channel memory. Memory that is capable of 1600MHz DDR3 CL 8-8-8-24 (CAS-TRCD-TRP-TRAS) and comes with a lifetime warranty.
An all new 6 GB kit which we'll test on an 64-bit Windows Vista environment. Razer sharp an fast stuff for sure .. let's check it out.
Sky net livesssss.
Exactly what i was going to say..
first skynet enslaves us and then we put out the sun and then the matrix is born.. i swear terminator is just a prequel for the matrix..that means jon connor fails
