Leveraging insights from neuroscience to build adaptive artificial intelligence

Nature's publication of a Perspective on leveraging insights from neuroscience to build adaptive artificial intelligence highlights the potential for AI systems that can learn and adapt quickly, much like animals. This research review outlines the biological foundations and progress in AI, as well as brain-inspired strategies for building flexible and adaptive AI algorithms. For website owners, this development means that future AI bots may be able to navigate and interact with their sites in a more human-like and dynamic way, potentially leading to increased AI bot traffic and more complex interactions between AI systems and website content. As adaptive AI algorithms become more prevalent, website owners may need to reassess their content policies and AI bot tracking strategies to ensure they are prepared for these advancements. To prepare for the potential impact of adaptive AI on their websites, owners can take several steps: monitor AI bot traffic patterns to identify areas where adaptive AI is being used, update their llms.txt files to reflect changing AI bot behaviors, and consider implementing more nuanced content policies that account for the potential of AI systems to learn and adapt quickly.
