    This startup is building AI that can fly drones and make its own decisions
    The debate on how far artificial intelligence can go revolves around questions about what actually constitutes human intelligence, and can a machine function similarly enough to a human brain? While not shooting for AGI, UK-based Stanhope AI is building its models according to neuroscience principles, and using the predictive, hierarchic machinery that make up our brains for inspiration.  The result is an AI that doesn’t need training. It basically just needs to be told that it exist
