Wow. Wtf? MIT reporting their work makes news. But I did this exact same research 7 years ago for my undergraduate project and got nothing.

Isn't everything brain inspired?

Interesting, but until we can manufacture graphene at scale, it'll remain a lab curiosity rather than the miracle material of the next age.

Give it time. What they're describing is ridiculously similar to transistors, and we all know how that ended up.

Brain-inspired? Not my brain for sure.

A me-like computer would probably randomly opening empty spreadsheets, or be like really slow pending on the time of day.

The computer might be great, but that doesn't help much if the software is shite

Well no, of course, not your brain. But inspiring ones yes.

Confirmed... before leaving my driveway, I usually need to stare at the garage door for 5-10 seconds to grasp that "yes, it is in fact down"

I stopped at a stop sign and attempted to wait for cross traffic that did not exist for… a long time yesterday. To be fair I had a fever

As someone who is a simpleton... What?

Graphene is a sheet of carbon, one atom thick, in a specific arrangement. It superconducts! meaning it has no resistance to electricity/heat

While I definitely understood the article from MIT, I appreciate you providing a summary for my friend.

Except now these scientists have managed to turn that property on and off, which could lead to new applications.

Atomic scale transistors for example
