What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Amazon Web Services is collaborating with Cortical Labs to integrate bio-computing technology into its offerings. Select AWS customers are currently gaining limited preview access to Cortical Labs' 'rat brain' AI model, which is designed to improve AI for generating videos. Cortical Labs, an Australia-based company, combines lab-grown neurons with silicon chips to create a platform called WAAS. The technology is expected to roll out to all AWS enterprise customers soon.
