We are on the cusp of beginning to study Neural Networks just like any other naturally occurring phenomena ;)

Also, just announced from MIT Media Lab: a new area of research aimed at understanding the behavior of artificial intelligence systems

The trailer looked interesting. I subscribed but I am reaching a limit in the number of hours a week I can spend watching video talks and reading research papers.
Don't expect too much to come out of this gift. MIT receives almost a billion dollars a year from taxpayers to manage MIT Lincoln Laboratory and never has that much to show for it.
