This article focuses on bio-computing research in Singapore that utilizes human-derived neurons for AI training, highlighting significant limitations like short system lifespans and low neuron counts compared to traditional infrastructure. While the piece touches on sci-fi concepts of self-awareness, its primary subject is the technical feasibility and current constraints of biological computing as a specialized hardware approach for machine learning.
I Am a Computer: Can Devices with Human Neurons Achieve Self-Awareness

A still from the film "Blade Runner 2049". Actress Ana de Armas in the role of the hologram Joi. The film raises the question: if AI behaves like a sentient being, adapts to human emotions, and wants to transcend its algorithms, becoming "real," can this be considered a sign of self-awareness? / Photo: Warner Bros. Pictures A computer whose computing power is based on human cells has gone operational in Singapore. Scientists plan to use the installation for developing and training AI. Such a computer consumes significantly less electricity than conventional analogues. "Evening Moscow" asked experts about the pros and cons of the installation created in Singapore, and most importantly, whether something resembling self-awareness might emerge in the neurons used within…
