This NYT article on the increasing success of scientists in mapping out the incredibly complex structure of the brain is interesting and obviously important. But it's also disturbing how indispensable Google's AI Department is to this work:
Both Google and Facebook have bought up a huge chunk of the world's AI brainpower over the last decade or more - buying them from academia and elsewhere. It's an incredibly potent and complex technology and there's almost no transparency in how Google and FB are using it.
