Scientists Develop , Biocomputer , Capable of Voice Recognition .<br />Futurism reports that researchers have <br />developed a "biocomputer" made from lab-grown <br />human brain tissue and electronic circuits.<br />Scientists fused human cells called "organoids" <br />into neurons and combined them with electronic <br />circuits to create what it calls "Brainoware.".<br />According to the team, the new biocomputer is capable <br />of performing tasks such as voice recognition.<br />Co-author and University of Indiana bioengineer <br />Feng Guo told 'Nature' that the goal is to build <br />a "bridge between AI and organoids.".<br />We wanted to ask the question <br />of whether we can leverage <br />the biological neural network within <br />the brain organoid for computing, Feng Guo, co-author and University <br />of Indiana bioengineer, via Futurism.<br />Futurism reports that the team's Brainoware <br />was able to perform voice recognition after <br />analyzing 240 voice recordings of eight people.<br />A machine-learning algorithm was used <br />to interpret the neural activity of the organoid <br />when it listened to each voice recording.<br />The Brainoware was able to identify <br />the original speaker 78% of the time.<br />A new paper published in the journal <br />'Nature Electronics' details the team's findings. .<br />Futurism reports that the findings represent a new <br />development in the field of biocomputing that could form<br />the foundation for the brain-inspired computers of the future
