Scientists have created an artificial synapse that works with water and salt, mimicking the medium used by our brains. This could lead to more efficient and energy-saving brain-inspired computers. The device, called an iontronic memristor, consists of a microchannel filled with water and salt, and can process complex information by altering the concentration of ions in response to electrical impulses. This research is a significant step towards computers that can replicate the capabilities of the human brain more accurately.

I was able to comprehend this for a while there, but eventually had to tap out. On a scale of zero to Nixon’s head in a jar, how far along are they?
It is a recent discovery and has not yet passed tests in the Laboratory, but the results are positive, that is, it works as expected. I don’t think that with this it will take long until the first applications, as always in this type of tecnology.
