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.

    As grim as it sounds, this is probably just a grift. It sounds like they’re using stem cells as wires, and they’ll die eventually. There’s some ai word salad in the article too.
