Smart Cellular Bricks reportedly recognize their collective shape without a central controller
Sakana AI says the cubes use identical small neural networks and communicate only with neighboring bricks to locate damage and guide repairs.
TLDR
Sakana AI says its Smart Cellular Bricks can figure out what object they form even though no cube knows its position and none is in charge. Each runs the same small neural network, using local exchanges to recognize the group's shape, locate missing pieces and guide repairs. The company says the work progressed from simulation to 197 physical bricks.
