What if AI could run on human brain cells instead of energy-hungry chips?
Meet Dr. Fred Jordan, the Swiss scientist who ditched traditional computing to grow living human neurons in his lab—and they're learning to compute with 1 MILLION TIMES less energy than current AI systems.
In this mind-bending conversation, Fred reveals:
- How he creates "brain organoids" from human stem cells
- Why biocomputing could solve AI's massive energy crisis
- Applications for Mars missions and personalized medicine
- The ethical questions of using human neurons as processors
This isn't science fiction—it's happening right now in Switzerland.
