Chinese researchers have simulated a human brain using 86 billion neurons and trillions of synapses. Despite U.S. chip sanctions, their team innovated with distributed learning using domestic GPUs. The model achieved 93% correlation with real human brain activity, enabling groundbreaking medical research without real brain testing. This breakthrough has been made freely available, fostering global collaboration. In China, partnerships between hospitals, companies, and universities drive rapid innovation, contrasting with slower progress in the West.
