If the cells lack arteries, proper arteries with nutrients, leukocytes, immune system etc, then their lifespan will be a lot less than 7 years. Pretty amazing

Pretty amazing actually that everything else is easy, or not difficult at least, and that's the hard part. But they will find a solution to make it practical for the cells to be trained, deployed, live for some weeks in a server farm, scoop up the dead cells from the silicon, put some new cells on, repeat!
I have argued in the past, that a solution to that problem will definitely be found [1]. A.I. computation will grow exponentially, but not 2^10 times a decade, 2^10 times a year. The enormity of such exponential growth is impossible using only silicon.
Natural computation of biological cells is great when absolute accuracy is not necessary, and pure silicon is the worst at that task. Natural computation using bacteria like slime, brain cells, fungi, bacteria mutated like neural cells or brain cells, any kind of combination.
