Brain-inspired computing with fluidic iontronic nanochannels

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.
