In parallel to recent developments in machine learning like GPT-4 , a group of scientists has recently proposed the use of neural tissue itself , carefully grown to recreate the structures of the animal brain, as a computational substrate. After all, if AI is inspired by neurological systems, what better medium to do computing than an actual neurological system?

@LuxRes In reply to LuxRes. I think it'll be difficult to monetize this at such an early stage when most ADAS technologies are still not full featured. Only when consumers have gotten sufficiently reliant on it would they even consider paying. They could also charge by range driven by ADAS rather than a flat monthly fee. I think people would be willing to fork out a little money to be chauffeured on road trips.
