In the interest of finding the cleverest canines for potential warfare - doggery , DARPA ’s got a architectural plan to startscanning puppy brains in an MRImachine . But rest period assured , those brains are still in the puppies in question .

The project , “ Functional Imaging to spring up Outstanding Service - Dogs ” or FIDOS for short , was unveil in a newresearch solicitationfrom DARPA . The plan goes a petty something like this : coax a pup with potential into an MRI motorcar , have a flight simulator give it cues , and then read its brain action . Theoretically , the unity with the most activity will be the smartest / easiest to school .
The design is found on other , similar inquiry imply dogs and MRI machinesand might not only be used to find smart dogs , but also “ hyper - societal ” ones , that would be great for go with soldiers with PTSD in rehab . Hopefully the program works out , because have the good dogs for whatever task is good for all party involved . No need to test to find out which state of war dogs are the thinned though . The solution isall of them . [ Wired ]
