03SCIENCE & FUTURISTIC TECHNOLOGY

BRAIN CELLS

An international team of scientists led by Johns Hopkins University has proposed the development of a biological computer powered by human brain cells that could outperform existing silicon-based machines while using less energy. This 'organoid intelligence' would be made of neural structures grown from stem cells connected to sensors and output devices and trained with machine learning. It could take decades to develop this technology into a commercial product, and there are ethical considerations regarding the potential for the computer to gain consciousness. All ethical issues will be continuously assessed by teams of scientists, ethicists, and the public.
