So you’re saying that the robots from the Matrix might’ve been unto something

[@rorywilliams7008]

Oh, sweet, man-made horror beyond comprehension

[@shoryukengandhi]

It's a very weird time to be alive....

[@claytonpellow4767]

looks like futurama knew this would happen

[@temporaladvisor3958]

What do I think? I think we have entered into a sci-fi version of life.

Somebody ask AI to tell humans how to use less power to make it work

[@imaginova88]

They did, it said "use human brains" 🧠

[@funnycatboy9684]

Why isn’t this more publicized

[@ShivaInu42]

The thought emporium channel on youtube has made a few videos on the process. They're making their own home made chips/organoids and trying to get em to play doom :D

[@MK-il5vc]

Unless you can grow a superbrain this tech seems unviable for wide use to me. I mean the whole point of ai is to swap the brain out when it comes to pure calculating power and logical thinking. So unless the synthetic brain becomes wayyy better than our brain, i don't see how it gan compete with ai. Definitely interesting for medical use and research though. Ethical question will be hard to answer because you can't measure consciousness. Maybe in some 50 years we'll be able to upgrade our brain through some form of organoid brain dlc😂

[@HaloForgeUltra]

Quite simple really. Just make more of them.
They use so little power, you could have giant farms of them.

[@grdfhrghrggrtwqqu]

AI uses a lot of water and power... The solution is 100% cyborgs. Uploading consciousness requires a medium, regardless of whether you like it or not, you'll need biocomputers and bio-digital integration to quite literally bridge the gap.
It'll also be quite necessary for understanding tech implants, and restoring, as well as enhancing health. Which means starting at this level, otherwise.... you're setting yourself behind in time and experiments that are likely to come to gradually benefit humanity.

[@MK-il5vc]

@@HaloForgeUltra organoid, as in the video explained, implies a smaller size than the actual organ. So if we stay at that organoid stage there is no benefit in pure performance, because we already have brains. So "unless you can grow a superbrain"....

[@MK-il5vc]

@@grdfhrghrggrtwqqu yeah thats what i tried to touch on with my last sentence. Definitely the first steps into future cyborge technologies

[@anahigajardo7200]

IA do not uses mathematics calculations and logic, in deed IA is just stadistics, in that sense, this bio computer have the same faults, but with more unpredictability.

[@D8V1Dx]

Watch the anime Psycho Pass. Don't want to spoil anything. so I wont say anything else.

[@Sourcesbaby]

This is a crime like if you agree😊

[@ShivaInu42]

It's more like a messed up version of animal testing where we have no idea what they may or may not be experiencing. But at the end of the day, this tech will help make our waifus real in VR with brain machine interfaces so 1000% worth.

[@Binkledergenson]

If these “brains” interact with an ai, then the ai will have a more human personality than the “brain”. Can they communicate?? Oh boy…

[@Huh-ez9tq]

I bet you’d argue that life doesn’t begin at conception though 😂

[@JerryAss]

Cogito ergo sum

[@samiscebba4332]

No... No no no no no no no nope stop now no no no

[@jianju4916]

It worked in Neon Genesis, what could go wrong? (if Air And End of Evangelion is any indication.)

[@djlapio93litlebro]

wooooo! finaly!

[@TheLinposterIsSus]

Good. Let the AI take over

[@astroboirap]

is this a man or woman?

[@adamchuahzongye395]

They/them 😂
