Numenta has researched the brain for 17 years, and now it finally has a product that it hopes can make AI up to 100 times more efficient.
The Redwood City, California-based company — started by computing pioneers Jeff Hawkins and Donna Dubinski — is unveiling its neuoscience-based AI commercial solution, the Numenta Platform for Intelligent Computing (NuPIC).
It is built on two decades of neuroscience rsearch, and it is based on the theory of the brain and intelligence that Hawkins wrote about in his 2021 book A Thousand Brains.

Gallium Studios is working on Proxi, and it chose Numenta as its AI partner due to the fundamental challenges they faced in incorporating AI into their game while prioritizing user trust and privacy.
