The old one-liner, “he’s too broke to pay attention,” is a fun play on words, but it also has a grain of grim neurological truth.
Because attention does not come easily. The…

As innovation surrounding artificial intelligence continues, Georgia Tech experts offer their thoughts on the scope of the recent executive order and the challenges ahead in regulating AI.
In 1950, Alan Turing asked, “Can machines think?” More than 70 years later, advancements in artificial intelligence are creating exciting possibilities and questions about its potential pitfalls.…
Lizzie Wright knew Georgia Tech was a great school, but had no idea the community she would encounter through her four and a half years.
Lizzie Wright was in 10th grade when she watched a TED Talk about controlling someone else’s arm with your brain.
“It got me thinking — we’re all walking around, talking to people, moving…
Many insects fly synchronously, matching the nervous system pulses to wing movement. But smaller insects don’t have the mechanics for this and must flap their wings harder, which works only up to a certain point. That’s where asynchronous flight comes in.
Mosquitoes are some of the fastest-flying insects. Flapping their wings more than 800 times a second, they achieve their speed because the muscles in their wings can flap faster than their nervous…

Study shows good navigators often use a bird’s eye view perspective to organize and remember different places in the environment and have a map-like representation of the environment in their mind.
Chances are we all know someone who gets lost easily and often: people who move to a new city or walk into an office building and have no idea where to go — and even after several trips they…
