Researchers are cultivating human brain cells in laboratories to transform them into biological circuits for supercomputers—a field known as “bio computing.” While it sounds like science fiction, ...

As companies around the world race to build more data centres to power artificial intelligence (AI) models, researchers are exploring whether living human cells could be used in computing systems. An ...

As prominent artificial intelligence (AI) researchers eye limits to the current phase of the technology, a different approach is gaining attention: using living human brain cells as computational ...

The technology is still in its infancy. But its trajectory suggests that ethical conversations may become pressing far sooner than expected. These “biocomputers” are still in their early days. They ...

In a town on the shores of Lake Geneva sit clumps of living human brain cells for hire. These blobs, about the size of a grain of sand, can receive electrical signals and respond to them — much as ...

A 3D network of living neurons and electronics can recognize electrical patterns and may help researchers study both brain ...

USC researchers built artificial neurons that replicate real brain processes using ion-based diffusive memristors. These devices emulate how neurons use chemicals to transmit and process signals, ...

No, this isn’t science fiction. Real-life researchers taught a dish of roughly 200,000 living human brain cells to play the classic 1990s computer game “Doom.” Experts at Cortical Labs, an Australian ...
