It's sooooo cute ...

But seriously, I am mildly surprised that no-one has yet tried either growing a huge brain-in-a-tank, or perhaps more plausibly, wiring loads of rat brains or cultured neural networks together with electronics, perhaps wiring them up to a computer and a robot body as well and seeing what happens. We have the technology, its just a matter of funding and ethics.

Here's nifty device also. http://www.hanselman.com/blog/ADiabetic … ndCGM.aspx
Scroll half way down the page...let's hope that's not the last cyborg of her kind ;)

btw, might have discovered this if I had bothered to read a bit, but does the rats brain actually receive feedback from teh robot/cyborg?  This opens up a whole world of possibilities :D

btw again, How the heck do we add an image to the post.  Tried to copy and past to no avail.

Peace,

Hi dude,
...If the users are just us, there's no need to 'scale it up'.
Bugger everyone else; they can build their own LOL  :  )

I always wished we had someone like Terminator or Robocop as a housemate... but I guess like anyone else they'd have their downside...kitched full of damned baby food, whole place stinks of machine oil, need  reinforced carpets, etc etc.
