By giving artificial intelligence simple associative learning rules based on the brain circuits that allow a sea slug to forage—and augmenting it with better episodic memory, like that of an octopus—scientists have built an AI that can navigate new environments, seek rewards, map landmarks and overcome obstacles.By giving artificial intelligence simple associative learning rules based on the brain circuits that allow a sea slug to forage—and augmenting it with better episodic memory, like that of an octopus—scientists have built an AI that can navigate new environments, seek rewards, map landmarks and overcome obstacles.Computer Sciences[#item_full_content]
