Human brains still growing, evolving, says study |
A study by University of Chicago geneticists has found that the human brain is still evolving and growing larger via Bloomberg:
“Our studies indicate that the trend that is the defining characteristic of human evolution — the growth of brain size and complexity — is likely still going on,” Bruce Lahn, lead researcher for both papers, said in an accompanying statement. “If our species survives for another million years or so, I would imagine that the brain by then would show significant structural differences from the human brain of today.”
Makes sense that we are still evolving and I wonder if this means a larger brain means more brainpower? Will people in the future be able to solve some of the computing problems today like more realistic artificial intelligence?
