Sure they did. Pay no attention to the pong player behind the curtain, just give this startup more money for further research.

Where are they going with this? Add it to computers? Help those with Alzheimer's? Replace Biden??

A spoonful of brain cells can play President.

That’s more brain cells than those in the White House too.

The starship Voyagers computer was run on some kind of neuro goop.

And a slightly bigger one figured out how to get elected president.

DishBrain is a heady mix of neurons extracted from embryonic mice and human neurons grown from stem cells. So which human was destroyed to extract these stem cells to grow human neurons?? This is truly ghastly ....

Playing pong?
For God's sake, if you want to measure their real potential, introduce a game that involves sex (oxytocin).
Or if these cells belong to a member of the Biden family, you could replace the oxytocin with coke, meth, or heroin.

First it was Pong, then it was Asteroids..........World of Warcraft coming soon?...................

Yep. Dish of cells would run the country better than DementiaJoe. Dems should vote for it next election.

But how do the brain cells get the quarters into the slots to play the next game?

Human brain cells and a computer game. What could possibly go wrong?

Something wrong with me, I’m reaching news saturation to the new and unimportant to me.
This will not move the needle on my life one bit so I tune it out. Becoming the same for politics, politicians, war, crime, woke, queers, freaks and other assorted nuts. I ust don’t give a damn.

“...mix of neurons extracted from embryonic mice and...
...human neurons grown from stem cells”
...stem cells from murdered unborn children perhaps?
All to play a video game

Stem cells can come from adults......mixed with mice neurons, they become neurons themselves................
