About NeuroSynthetica, LLC

NeuroSynthetica, LLC is a privately-held US company founded in 2017 by veteran computer technologist Steve Jones, in the Seattle Area. Steve supports the work of collaborating researchers using NeuroSynthetica's at-scale simulator software and synthetic brain design software.

The company's goal is to identify the salient components of the biological mechanism that gives rise to sentience. We do this by creating models of brains and simulating them using COTS (Commercial Off The Shelf) computers.

We do build brain models that support prototype autonomous robots, for the purpose of demonstrating the behaviors that emerge when sentience arises. We may make these models available on a limited basis, though they are not intended to be commercial products. Our models are written in the SOMA™ modeling language, implemented by our brain design workbench tools.

If you are interested in searching for sentience using NeuroSynthetica's tools, contact us on the contact page. Collaborators may obtain a login for the site and access the software as well as papers in the library not provided to the general public.
