LOScientists at Cortical Labs have trained lab-grown human brain cells to play the video game Doom.
The system, called CL1, combines about 200,000 human neurons grown on a microchip to create a kind of biological computer.
These neurons receive electrical signals from the game and respond with their own activity, gradually learning how to navigate the environment through feedback.
It sounds like science fiction, but the goal goes far beyond gaming.
Researchers believe systems like this could eventually help model neurological diseases, test drugs, and explore how intelligence emerges from biological networks.
In earlier experiments the same setup learned to play Pong. Now it can handle the far more complex 3D environment of Doom.
The neurons are still beginners at the game, but the technology behind it points toward a new hybrid field where biology and computing start 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?
