Abstract:

Whether artificial intelligence should be “brain-inspired” and how to imitate a brain are controversial issues in the development of artificial intelligence. According to the years of research experience in the fields of bionic vision and artificial intelligence, the author expounded the significance and methods of brain-inspired intelligence research, discussed the similarities and differences between artificial intelligence and brain-inspired intelligence at this stage, and presented some individual viewpoints on the future of artificial intelligence. Based on the above views on brain-inspired intelligence, the author and his team will develop a “cyber-brain” that combines intelligence, perception and manipulation to explore the development of machine autonomous intelligence.
