🦠 Imagine a computer made from bacteria! Researchers at McGill built a biocomputer that explores millions of solutions in parallel, unlocking new possibilities in AI, encryption, and beyond. Read more: #BioComputing #AI

A bacteria-based biocomputer tests many possible solutions at once, using tiny interconnected channels where dividing cells multiply the number of biological processors. @mcgillu @MicrosysNanoeng

New paper out in @NatureComms with a brilliant list of co-authors! We propose the notion of #CellularSupremacy to focus attention on domains in which #biocomputing may offer superior performance over traditional computers.

The Computing Future Are we at a technological dead end? #QuantumComputing #BioComputing via @DigitalisHomo

The study relied on the bacterium E. coli and V. natriegens to run the calculations.

🧬 Bacteria are being used to solve complex mathematical problems. Researchers at McGill University have developed a proof-of-concept biocomputer that uses moving and multiplying bacteria inside microscopic channels to explore possible solutions to the NP-complete Subset Sum Problem. A fascinating step towards biological computing where living cells become part of the processor.

Scientists Build Biocomputer That Runs on Bacteria to Solve Hard Problems - CNET

Researchers have built a living biocomputer in which bacteria explore microscopic channel networks to solve hard mathematical problems, multiplying as they work to boost computing power.

Singapore just built a data center using living human brain cells.  Each CL1 system contains over 200,000 lab-grown neurons connected to silicon chips.  This could offer a more energy-efficient way to power the future of AI. #Biocomputing #AI #BrainTech

Forget silicon. Cortical Labs is now using living human brain cells—the same kind that learned to play DOOM—to generate text in an LLM. This is not science fiction. #AI #biocomputing

cortical labs growing 200K human neurons on chips and racking them in data centers. 30W per unit. entire rack pulls less than 1.5 H100s. silicon replaced humans. now human cells replace silicon. 🧠 @CorticalLabs #biocomputing #AI
