Jeff Bezos Is Funding a Wild Hunt for the Brain’s ‘Core Algorithm’

SMRTR summary

A startup called Flourish, backed by $500 million from Jeff Bezos and others, is trying to build an AI that works like the human brain — learning faster and using far less energy than today's models. Current AI systems consume massive amounts of power and data, while the human brain runs on just 20 watts. Flourish's team of neuroscientists and AI researchers hopes to crack the brain's "core algorithm" within five years.
