Not simulated neurons, not artificial neural networks inspired by biology, but actual brain cells grown in a lab, connected to electrodes, and used to process information. That's not science fiction anymore. It's happening right now at FinalSpark, a Swiss startup building the world's first remotely accessible biocomputing platform. In this episode, Sam talks with Dr. Ewelina Kurtys, a neuroscientist with a PhD in brain imaging and a postdoctoral researcher at King's College London, about how living neurons could revolutionise computing — and why they use one million times less energy than…
