Technological Brain

An international team of scientists in Europe have just created a silicon chip that functions like a human brain. This means that it can learn like humans can. Although this technology is not new, and it cannot mimic the brain perfectly, this technology is getting better and better, and closer than ever to mimicking a human brain. This silicon chip only carries 200,000 neurons which is not even close to the number of neurons in a real human brain. But the amazing thing about this technology is that it can operate about 100,000 time faster than a real human brain.
