In the International Journal of Extreme Manufacturing, researchers have built a flexible and ultra-fast artificial synapse printed entirely from room-temperature liquid inks that dissolves on demand in six minutes. The work shows that high-performance and brain-inspired hardware does not require extreme vacuum chambers, rare metals, or permanent electronic waste.

    I don’t get why you’d want a computer to be dissolvable or bendable…

    Sure it doesn’t seem like that would matter, but they seem to be trying to spin it as some sort of advantage?

    Our brain runs an astonishingly powerful supercomputer on roughly the same electrical power as a dim 20-watt refrigerator bulb

    Oh yeah? How much power is that? Is it roughly the same electrical power as a slow 20-watt phone charger?
