The CL1 is the first commercial system from the same researchers who wowed the tech world in 2022 by teaching a cluster of 800,000 neurons to ...

Scientists have successfully connected living human brain cells to a computer system and taught them to interact with the classic video game DOOM. The strange experiment marks a new step toward ...

Cortical Labs made plenty of headlines last month when its latest hardware platform, the CL1, which uses living human neurons as the core of a fully ...

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 ...

A computer platform that runs on human neurons (and recently showed off said neurons’ ability to play DOOM) now wants in on the data center boom. Australia-based Cortical Labs announced today that it ...

オーストラリアのスタートアップ企業Cortical Labsは、マイクロチップ上に培養した約20万個のヒトニューロンによる『DOOM』の操作実験に関する解説映像を公開しました。 マイクロチップ上に構成された「生体コンピュータ」が『DOOM』をプレイ！ 今回の実験では、マルチ電極アレイ（MEA）と呼ばれるマイクロチップ上に約20万個の生きたヒトニューロンを配置したバイオコンピュータ「CL1」を使用。

Australian biotech group, Cortical Labs, is using living human brain cells to power AI data centers, training these neuron-powered microchips to play video games.

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

They’re not very good at it, apparently. Fancy that ...

CL1 is the world's first commercially available biocomputer, announced by Cortical Labs in 2025. It connects cultured human brain neurons to a silicon chip and can perform calculations using neural ...
