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 ...

In a wild experiment, it turns out a few human neurons linked up to some custom silicon can actually play Doom.

A dish of living human neurons has been taught to play Doom. No, it isn’t conscious or watching the screen the way players do. But it is learning to respond to signals in a way that produces ...

It’s a regrettable reality that there is never enough time to cover all the interesting scientific stories we come across ...

Living human neurons were trained to play Doom, extending the long-running engineering benchmark into biological computing.

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

Neuron-powered computer chips can now be easily programmed to play a first-person shooter game, bringing biological computers a step closer to useful applications ...

A cluster of human brain cells, integrated into a chip, learned to play the computer game _Doom_ in just a week, advancing ...
