These breakthroughs can make AI even more flexible.

Despite criticisms of gaming, these findings indicate potential benefits in professional fields requiring high cognitive performance, without increased cognitive fatigue.

Neuroscientists made the breakthrough when they uncovered how people learn and remember. That kind of information is required for the BCI (Brain-Computer Interface) systems that can control robots and other tools using the EEG. This kind of information is also an important thing for rehabilitating people, who have neurological damage. That data can be used to create new biological computers and microchips. 

Video games can used to simulate the new tools in the virtual world. If the person can use BCI to control some characters on screen. The same system can control interactive robots through computers.

For controlling machines, the BCI requires machine learning. The system must connect certain EEG curves with a precise right action. The AI that controls the BCI requires a dataset about those EEG curves. Those datasets are like library or dictionary books for the human brain. And without them, the BCI cannot decode thoughts. 

Video games offer a good tool for researching memory and thinking. And if a person can move characters on screen, that person can move similar things in nature. Video games improve certain types of concentration and observation. And that thing can used to teach people with concentration problems. Video games can uncover. If a person has some kind of problems with some cognitive operations. So video games can uncover, how people learn things.

Computer- or video games can be used to create virtual datasets for AI that control interplanetary missions. When AI lands probes on distant planets like Jupiter's icy moons it requires datasets that it uses. The problem with NASA is that if there is no landing mission before, there is the possibility that everything goes wrong. Flight to Jupiter takes about eight years. And if something goes wrong that mission takes 8 years for nothing. 

So the AI requires a dataset on how to control the craft. Video games are a tool that can offer practice for AI. The gamer operates virtual modules that the AI can use to create a mission profile. The AI and learning machines cannot operate using empty databases. When AI thinks it connects databases to the new entireties. The AI cannot create mission profiles without databases. 


"Researchers from Bar-Ilan University have uncovered how machine learning successfully classifies images, revealing that each filter in a deep learning architecture recognizes and refines the recognition of image clusters through layers." (ScitechDaily, How Does AI Work? Researchers Reveal the Mechanism Underlying Successful Machine Learning)


The imitation game is the method of how the researchers teach things to the AI. In an imitation game, the operator controls virtual characters. And those virtual character's actions will transfer to the physical machines. The AI-controlled robots can also imitate things that people make. The robot's actions are a series of movements or reactions. And the system can connect certain actions with certain things. 

When an imitation machine makes connections between some action and some object. That machine can create billions of connections. And then it can create a network of those action-object combinations. This type of network has unlimited capacity. And the only thing. That limits the number of action object combinations.

Schrödinger's cat: and the limits of that idea.

"In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment concerning quantum superposition". (Wikipedia, Schrödinger's cat). But the same thing can use as model for many other thought experiments.  Sooner or later, or at least in the ultimate end of the universe, the Schrödinger's cat will turn into wave movement. The information that this cat involved exists but the cat does not exist in its material form. The information doesn't ever vanish. It just turns its shape.  We are all trapped in the universe and time. The universe is the space that is entirety to us. There are no confirmed other universities. But the multiverse is a logical continuum for the expanding galactic megastructures.  The problem with natural things is this. They are black and white. They exist or do not exist. Could there be something, that exists and not exists at the same time?  Scrödinger's cat is thinking experiment about case their cat is not dead or not alive. But in this...

The string theory offers a new way to calculate Pi.

"Scientists discovered a new series for pi through string theory research, echoing a 15th-century formula by Madhava. By combining Euler-Beta Functions and Feynman Diagrams, they modeled particle interactions efficiently. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Leap in Mathematics) People normally think that. The pi is the ratio of the circumference circle's circumference to the circle's diameter. The Pi is a mathematical constant 3.14159..., the endless decimal number. The Pi is interesting because developers can use that decimal number to make the encryption algorithms stronger.  The idea is that the encryptions program hides the message's original ASCII numbers by multiplicating those numbers with some decimal number. Or the system can add some numbers to those ASCII numbers.  "Aninda Sinha (left) and Arnab Saha (right). Credit: Manu Y" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Le...

There are always more than three actors in the real world.

"An international research team is advancing precision timekeeping by developing a nuclear clock using thorium isotopes and innovative laser methods, potentially transforming our understanding of physical constants and dark matter. (Artist’s concept.) Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Unveiling the Thorium Nuclear Clock and Its Time-Twisting Secrets) From Three-body problem... There are no pure three-body systems in nature. There are always more than three components in the system. For making real three-body systems we must separate those three bodies from the environment. Otherwise, there are stable effects. But nobody can predict some effects like distant supernova explosions or sun eruptions.  And one of those things that affect all bodies is time. When radioactive materials decay. That affects the stability and symmetry of the object.  Energy levels affect the existence of things like neutrons. The thorium atom clocks are next-generation tools for time measurement....
