Our Newest AI Quest: Mapping the Human Brain
Google Research and the Stanford Accelerator for Learning have launched Polar Peaks, the third of the free AI Quests, in which students aged 11 to 14 scan and map neurons, clean data and test a model. We explain how the game works, the connectomics research behind it, from a 1.4 petabyte map of human cortex to the complete male fruit fly brain, and what it means for teachers, parents and businesses.
