For decades, scientists have mapped attention, memory, language, and reasoning to separate brain networks — yet one big mystery remained: why does the mind feel like a single, unified system?

A team of neuroscientists investigates communication pathways in the brain and predicts intelligence. A new study approach uses machine learning to improve our conceptual understanding of intelligence ...

Artificial intelligence now plays Go, paints pictures, and even converses like a human. However, there remains a decisive difference: AI requires far more electricity than the human brain to operate.

A new scientific paper I produced along with Sarah Cassidy and other colleagues, published in the journal Learning and Individual Differences, shows that significant increases in general intelligence, ...

There’s no question that AI systems have accomplished some impressive feats, mastering games, writing text, and generating convincing images and video. That’s gotten some people talking about the ...

A 20-year study published in February of 2026 has shown that one specific type of cognitive training can significantly reduce Alzheimer’s disease and related dementia diagnoses years later. This is ...
