Singapore has unveiled a biological data center prototype that harnesses living human neurons for low-power computing.

A Biological Data Centre represents a new generation of computing infrastructure. Instead of relying solely on conventional silicon chips, it uses “wetware” — living biological neurons derived from stem cells — to process information and support AI systems. In contrast to traditional data centres, which depend on energy-intensive servers, biological computing offers the potential for significantly greater efficiency by harnessing brain-like organoids that can operate using only a fraction of the power required by digital computers.

    This is the worst fucking idea I’ve ever heard. Please don’t create the Mother Brain and hook it up to the internet.

    Also: Does it count as AGI if it’s just a gigantic human brain?

      Honestly though, let’s just do it. The world is gonna end no matter what we do at this point, at least this finale is interesting.

        I was bullshitting with my friends one night talking about nonsense like how we would die. One of the friends pipes up and says if they got cancer or something horrible that they would try and take out as many people as possible. I asked them what they meant and they said they would steal a bus and run over a bunch of people. I was stunned and asked why and they said they wouldn’t go out like a bitch.
