The hydrogel demonstrates memory and improved performance in playing Pong through experience, showcasing a potential simpler avenue for developing algorithms for AI systems.
By using an electroactive polymer hydrogel, researchers have illustrated that memory can lead to learning and improvement, marking significant progress in simulating intelligent behavior.
Dr. Vincent Strong emphasizes the distinction between their hydrogel having memory and being sentient, noting that it develops performance over time akin to intelligence.
This research could pave the way for alternative neural network models by mimicking biological structures while also highlighting the learning potential of non-biological systems.
