A supercomputer capable of mimicking the human brain is set to be activated in 2024. The DeepSouth system, developed by researchers at the International Centre for Neuromorphic Systems, uses spiking neural networks to efficiently emulate large networks of neurons, rivaling the rate of operations in the human brain. This groundbreaking technology aims to unlock the secrets of how our brains handle information with surprising efficiency.
I also gagged when I saw the name, but it's a team of researchers at Western Sydney University in southern Australia, who are probably simply too high up in their ivory tower to realize/care what Deep South means in America. According to them, it's an homage to a couple other systems:
Or you know, they're just not from the USA.
