A team of researchers published an article on their research on biocomputing. It goes in-depth about the potential of such systems and how to build them. The core idea is to grow brain tissue out of stem cells to use the high energy efficiency and ability to perform complex tasks with organoid-computer interfaces. Instead of copying the human brain with AI, we use it directly as a computing device. Since it is much more likely to develop conscious systems this way, the ethical side of this research is critical. The article also explores the ways this research can help understand our own brain and cognitive diseases. Research like this pushes our understanding of consciousness and intelligence.
