Scientists consider brain cells for AI.

(RT) ⸻ Johns Hopkins University is working on artificial intelligence (AI) built from human brain cells. The project is led by Thomas Hartung, a professor of environmental health sciences at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and Whiting School of Engineering. Hartung argues that computing and artificial intelligence are reaching a ceiling and the hardware limitations can be overcome with "organoids" – lab-grown tissue resembling human organs. This research will benefit self-learning AI, but also advance the treatment of human cognition issues and impairments. ChatGPT, the language-processing tool created by OpenAI, has been making headlines and garnering controversy. Tesla and SpaceX owner Elon Musk called the bot "scary good" on Twitter in December and is looking into creating his own neural network competitor. Beijing is both seeking to develop its own AI analogue and simultaneously banning access to the US-based one, arguing that it can be used to "spread false information."
