Great thoughtful post about neuromorphic computing from Matteo.
hey Bluesky world, I realized I didn't post anything here yet
I'll start with sharing a recent blog post on the workshop we organised at the last Bernstein Conference 2024. I hope you enjoy it 💃
Thank you @melikapayvand.bsky.social , Laura, and Ana for the feedback and suggestions 💜

It’s been a while since I last published something on my personal blog. Life has moved along in beautiful, unexpected ways, and I’ve experienced many absolutely lovely moments. On the professional side, I recently had the opportunity to organize a workshop at the Bernstein Conference in Frankfurt am Main (my lovely and chaotic Frankfurt <3). This workshop was brought to life thanks to the other incredible organizers, Laura Kriener and Melika Payvand, with their creativity, initiative, and vision. I feel grateful to be a part of this vibrant community. So, why not use this opportunity to write here again?

Neuromodulation enhances the capability and efficiency of spiking neural networks
Spiking neurons underlie the brain’s extreme energy efficiency, and therefore have great potential in neuromorphic computing, although realising this efficiency in practice has proven challenging. We ...

The reason why this hasn't been made yet is because neuromorphic computing is still in its infancy. As for how the "software" is made, the best option overall is trying to "upscale" human brain activity until the simulation reacts roughly similarly to the scanned human. Nightmarish, but possible.
