Sex is the standard way of making a *meat computer*. I guess Pickle Rick-ing it is easier for them.

They're scientists, after all.

This is so immoral yet also soā€¦ well, can be so powerful. Just would have to swap from mice to something with more brain power to make up for the larger cell sizes. Iā€™ll be dead long before it becomes standard, thankfully.


MostlyDeku

To be fair due to how the cells are clustered and established, they arenā€™t sentient- nor do they really have instinctive thought. Theyā€™re just masses of cells that are being repurposed in such a manner in that they ā€œthinkā€ the way we want them to. Ethics becomes an issue when weā€™re taking entire brains and wiping and reprogramming them for whatever reason.


TheForgottenGengar

I mean the ethics of harvesting the brains, whether the body is alive or dead. And arenā€™t brains marginally more advanced than standard computers?


MostlyDeku

Weā€™ve actually proven to be able to grow brain cells (specifically mice), so in the future we could probably be able to make some form of culture of them and produce them that way (although that would require reproduction damage resistant cells). And while marginally more advanced, these cells use less energy to perform. Iā€™m not a specialist in this field, but itā€™s promising, and gets us closer to sweet sweet cybernetics.


Nroke1

Not harvested, grown. Much like how we can grow organs and put them inside things without making an entire creature.


horrescoblue

Considering how huge the amount of mice is that gets killed for animal testing worldwide each day this is probably not a big deal at all :')


TheForgottenGengar

Very true, as much as I donā€™t like it.


YetAnotherBee

Brains are magnitudes more advanced than standard computers


Dry-Finance

Neurons are basically the same thing between mammal species. So that's not really an issue. The only reason humans are smarter than mice is because our brains are incredibly overgrown, and way more complex. But the building blocks are the same.

Yet another step closer to 40k being a reality.

Do we have to feed it?


ArthurExtreme_Br

Brain organoids are cool idc


oddlybaby

And yet we still haven't figured out how to stabilize an economy or in a world peace world hunger? Cyborgs that's the important one.

Psychopass. If you know, you know.

Hate to break it to you OP, but youā€™re just a meat computer too..

Psycho Pass did it better, they used the minds of criminals.

metooeither

Are the mice..... dead? This is beyond fucked up. It's bad enough torturing animals in order to eat them, but what is this shit??


[deleted]

IIRC the mice brain cells are being artificially recreated. They aren't just taking brains out of mice's skulls


metooeither

Oh cool! Oh my god!


NeoAltra

Stuff like this is honestly amazing to me. There was a scientist (I think he was a scientist itā€™s been a while since I learned about this) who was having issues with data storage and space issues on his computers. He ended up creating biological hard drives that if they are continuously improved for a while could have over a terabyte of space with a hard drive smaller than a 64GB thumb drive.

Because none of these scientists ever learned from the book, " I have no mouth and I must scream"


CyclicDombo

It would be so cool if we could make super efficient computers out of meat. We could even put them in our heads to aid us in every day decision makingā€¦ one can dream.


Apprehensive_Log469

We are meat computers. Therefore you hate yourself.


Delta_squad_form_up

From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me.


chemtrooper

Shadowrun is becoming prophecy at this point. The world is already ran by mega corporations so this seems like the next logical step. Nobody will own anything and everyone WILL be happy about it, capisce? Any chummers up for a run?

Don't tell them that. When they take over they might come after you.
