A Brain With a Single Neuron?

 Novel idea here, workable? 

Artificial Brain with a Single Neuron

A striking mathematical idea could solve two hardware challenges in artificial intelligence (AI)

Researchers at Technische Universität Berlin (TU Berlin) have succeeded in simulating a neural network of thousands of nerve cells on a computer with only a single neuron programmed into the software code. The neuron is activated and read out with a time delay and can thus take on the roles of all virtual neurons within fractions of a second. This creates a completely new class of neural networks distributed through time rather than space. Such an approach would allow entirely new solutions in the future to integrate artificial neurons directly into hardware components, such as through optoelectronic building components. AI hardware using this method could also save energy and thus be more climate-friendly as it requires less power. These results were recently published as an "Editors' Highlight" in Nature Communications.... '
