Scientists from Moscow State University linked a rat's brain with AI, teaching it to press a lever and recognize human inscriptions.
The claims regarding Moscow State University's AI experiments with rats lack direct supporting evidence in the given sources. The claims involve a rat's brain being linked with AI, rats learning to press levers, and perceiving human inscriptions. The evidence provided discusses AI misuse in scientific publications and the concept of operant conditioning and reinforcement learning in AI, but not the specific claims about rat experiments conducted by Moscow State University. Additionally, while rats can recognize differences in speech patterns, there is no evidence they can perceive human inscriptions. Consequently, these claims are rated low on the factual scale due to insufficient corroborating evidence.
