This sounds like a start of a dystopian novel, where animal brains are being shoved into various robots. And that a researcher who's trying to stop it, ultimately fails and he's also turned into a robot.
- Jensson 5y agoI wonder what comes first, engineered biological brains that we can put in things like cars or that machine learning has progressed to the point we no longer need biological brains. Biological brains are super cheap and efficient though. The brain of a fly can still do object recognition and navigate environments for basically free, weighs less than a milligram including cameras, and the factory to produce those brains is just putting a cell in a wet environment and it builds itself, the brain of an ant can build complex structures etc. It is possible metal brains will never beat those.
