Silver moves AI forward

A large step in the continuing Development of artificial intelligence! German and Italian scientists have produced a memristive element! It’s a component whose electrical resistance changes with the amount of current flowing through those functions similarly to a biological nerve cell. This discovery will help advance the science of artificial intelligence (AI) as the element, produced from nanowires, will allow computers to more closely approximate the neural networks of human brains.   This could be a large step in the continuing development of artificial intelligence, and silver will play a key role! The element relies on silver to join it to other components, because silver is one of the world’s best electrical conductors and is malleable enough to connect to the nanosized memristive element. The researchers believe that memristive cells may have the best chance of mimicking the function of human neurons and synapses in what they call ‘bio inspired computers.’
