The idea of brains in a dish is turning true.

  

 The idea of brains in a dish is turning true. 


"By growing small brains in the lab, researchers can test out new treatments for brain diseases. Here is an artist's interpretation of growing brain cancer in a dish. In reality, today's cultured mini-brains are far smaller, just a few millimeters, and they look different. (Illustration: BeataScienceArt/IMBA)" ( Sciencenorway.no/Neuroscientists cultivate mini-versions of human brains in the lab. Could they become conscious?)

And technology is always advancing faster than we think. Those cell cultures can connect with microchips. The half-organic-half silicon structure makes those microchips extremely powerful. In those microchips living neurons are communicating with computers. 

When technology is advancing. The size of brains can turn bigger. And they can learn more things. Also, that cell or neuron cultures can connect by using computers. That thing is making them possible to create new and powerful systems. 

In some visions, there are brains in the nutrient in the dish. That dish is in the laboratory. And the brains are interacting with the computers. In some other visions where living neurons are connected with the robotic body. That kind of cyborg is possible to make. The only limit is that the neurons need nutrients. And in some futuristic models, the living bone marrow is installed in the robot body. 

The system needs only nutrients and the bone marrow is creating blood. That blood is transferring nutrients and oxygen to those artificial brains. The main reason why those systems must use bone marrow is that the immune cells must keep those brains clear from bacteria and viruses. The bone marrow can use liquid nutrients that are used to feed it. 



The neurons that live in the dish and solve problems are turning true. Researchers have created the neurons that live in nutrients at Petri dishes and play video games. That cell group is playing the video game called "Pong". 


Because those neurons are playing computer or video games means that the neurons can communicate with computers. And that thing makes it possible to use them also for controlling robots. This means that the hybrid robots which are using living neurons in their control unit and those neurons are controlling the metal body are the thing that makes those robots very independent. 

The ability to connect the neurons with the robot body is making it possible to create robots with the same intelligence level as humans. And that means we should re-estimate things like national rights and other things. The problem with too-intelligent robots is that they have consciousness. And if those robots feel being under threat. They might act against their creators. 

And the capacity of this kind of artificial brain is theoretically unlimited. In medical science, the cloned neurons can use to replace the destroyed brain areas. And the only problem is that those cloned neurons have no memories stored in destroyed neurons. The ability to clone neurons is making it possible to use synthetic neurons. 

And that kind of thing can use in the biological microchip. The same effect that makes some viruses turn the immune cell into a cancer cell is making it possible to turn the immune cells into neurons. The thing is that the biological microprocessors are the thing that gives things like drones extremely independence in operations. 

The idea of the living brain tissue, that can operate robots is taken from the UFO hypothesis. The idea is that in the distant future. Spacecraft or robots will be connected to cyborgs the machine-brain hybrids. 

The cyborg spacecraft can travel between stars. The flight time between stars is millions of years. But if the craft can replace destroyed neurons it can make that journey. 

There could be cloning systems for those neurons. And that thing could solve the biggest problem of interstellar traveling. The use of living neurons in space projects. Would make those half-organic and half synthetic space systems independent.

And those intelligent probes can travel billions of years if they can repair themselves in the cases of damages. The system can use things like algae as nutrients and those algae cells can use also it for cloning the neurons. 

The thing is that this kind of technology can open very bright and fascinating ideas. But also we should understand that this kind of technology is a very dangerous thing in the wrong hands.

Transcendence, or the ability to transcendent thinking may grow in teen's brains.

   "New research has discovered that transcendent thinking, which involves analyzing the broader implications of situations, can foster brain growth in adolescents. This form of thinking enhances brain network coordination, impacting developmental milestones and future life satisfaction. The study emphasizes the need for education that encourages deep, reflective thought, underscoring the critical role of adolescents in their own brain development". (ScitechDaily, Scientists Discover That “Transcendent” Thinking May Grow Teens’ Brains) "Scientists at  USC Rossier School of Education’s Center for Affective Neuroscience, Development, Learning and Education (CANDLE) have discovered that adolescents who grapple with the bigger meaning of social situations experience greater brain growth, which predicts stronger identity development and life satisfaction years later".

Higgs field and the speed of light

Dimensions are energy levels. When the difference between energy levels between two objects rises too high, they lose their ability to interact with each other. And the problem with crossing the speed of light is that researchers cannot pump enough energy that the particle can jump to the fourth dimension.  When a particle closes speed of light its size turns smaller, and finally, a particle cannot turn smaller anymore. And that thing is the cosmic speed limit. The light cone is the model that for crossing the speed of light the particle must push its structure through itself. And that is difficult because the particle's density turns so high that it cannot push its superstrings through that structure.  When we think that the Higgs field pulls energy through particles we might understand why only photons and other massless particles can reach the speed of light. The energy that travels through particles impacts the Higgs field. And that's why it will deny crossing the speed of

The Dark Matter as a cosmological discrepancy

The problem with cosmology and dark matter is that cosmologists cannot connect dark matter with standard cosmological models. Without knowledge about details of some parts of the system that makes impossible to make complete models of the system.  The fact is that we know only 5% of the universe. We cannot make it complete. And working models about the system where 95% remains unknown. so we know only a little part of the system called universe.  In some models, dark energy is connected with dark matter. The source of dark energy would be dark matter. But confirming this theory is impossible if we cannot see dark matter or dark energy.  In many models, the WIMPs (Weakly interacting massive particles are the thing. That makes the mysterious gravitational effect called dark matter. The form of WIMP is a mystery. There are also models where WIMPs are like gravitational skyrmions.  Or they could be overweight gravitons. But the problem is that nobody saw graviton yet.  There is the possibi
