Biological Data Center Runs On Millions Of Living Human Brain Cells
Original: New "Biological Data Center" Uses Millions Of Living Human Brain Cells To Process Information
A new 'biological data center' reportedly uses millions of living human brain cells to process information, blending lab-grown neural tissue with computing hardware. The claim, reported by IFLScience, points to emerging biocomputing research where neuron cultures perform tasks alongside or instead of silicon chips. The development is drawing attention for its implications for computing efficiency and the ethics of using human-derived cells.
Why now: The striking idea of computing with living human brain cells raises both scientific and ethical questions people find compelling.
