AI🤯 Scientists at Cortical Labs have trained lab grown human brain cells to play the video game Doom.
Their system, called CL1, grows about 200,000 human neurons on a microchip, creating a kind of biological computer. The neurons receive electrical signals from the game and respond with their own activity. Through feedback, the network slowly learns how to navigate the environment.
It may sound like science fiction, but the goal is much bigger than gaming. Researchers believe systems like this could help study neurological diseases, test drugs, and understand how intelligence emerges from living neural networks.
In earlier experiments the same platform learned to play Pong. Now it’s handling the far more complex 3D world of Doom. The neurons are still beginners, but the technology hints at a future where biology and computing begin to merge.
The bigger question is where this leads.
Could future computers run partly on living cells instead of silicon?
What do you think about this kind of bio-computer research?
