Coming to you from BoingBoing is this image of a genetically modified mouse brain. Personally, I find it beautiful. The complexity of the brain itself is one of the main reasons why I think individualized (i.e. autonomous) AI is still decades away. Perhaps the Internet itself will gain a consciousness, but when you see how complex a mouse's brain is, it makes you wonder if that's ever possible. Still, enjoy the beauty and think of the color of your own neurons.
