A biocomputer powered by lab-grown human brain cells has leveled up from Pong to Doom. While nowhere ready to handle the video game shooter’s most challenging levels, researchers at Cortical Labs in ...

Researchers at Australian start-up Cortical Labs have taught human neurons grown on a chip to play the classic Doom game. In 2021, they had already used 800,000 neurons to play Pong. Now, with four ...

Researchers at a Melbourne start-up have taught their “biological computer” made from living human brain cells to play Doom.

Researchers are no longer just simulating brains in silicon, they are wiring living human neurons into machines and asking them to compute. Tiny clusters of brain cells, grown from stem cells and ...

Scientists at Stanford University have taken a major step toward helping people “speak” without moving a muscle—by decoding the silent voice inside the mind. In a study published in the journal ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Jason Alan Snyder is a technologist covering AI and innovation. New research shows brain-computer interfaces can decode inner ...
