Researchers have developed a physics-driven AI system called Intrinsic Plasticity Network (IPNet) that uses magnetic tunnel junctions to create human-like working memory. The system demonstrates 18x error reduction in dynamic vision tasks while reducing memory-energy overhead by over 90,000x compared to traditional digital AI systems.
Researchers discovered that large language models exhibit working memory limitations similar to humans, encoding multiple memory items in entangled representations that require interference control rather than direct retrieval. This finding reveals a shared computational constraint between biological and artificial systems, suggesting that working memory capacity may be a fundamental bottleneck in intelligent systems rather than a limitation unique to biological brains.
