This is a tech breakthrough that might be bigger than AI.

That pink liquid…it’s full of living human brain cells.

And scientists have combined those brain cells with traditional silicon to build computers that are alive.

It’s pretty insane.

Now this is a brand new industry of technology called biocomputing.

Where computers are being run by actual human brains.

It’s kinda like a reverse cyborg, mostly computer with a little bit of brain inside.

Now in the last few days there’s been a huge update where these brain computers learned to play the game DOOM.

All this gameplay is being run by the brain computer on its own.

Now if you’re like me, you’re probably wondering one thing…

Why are scientists doing this?

It feels a bit extreme to be growing human brains just to put them inside of computers.

Well listen to this…

It turns out, human brain cells have extremely rare abilities to process things without being trained.

Normal computers need to be taught how to solve certain problems.

It’s why AI models take so much energy and training data to build.

But as soon as you add brain cells to a computer chip, they don’t really need as much training.

They kinda start figuring out what to do on their own, just like a human would.

In a way, they’re speedrunning the learning process.

Now because of this, these biocomputers are super efficient.

A regular supercomputer might use 40M watts of power to solve a complex task.

The human brain can do it in just 20.

That’s 2M times more efficient.

And this means these biocomputers could become the secret weapon to solving humanity’s hardest computational challenges.

As Black Mirror as it feels to merge brains and computers, this kind of seems like a miracle discovery.

But…there is just one massive problem…
