Maybe the phrase "My CPU died" is/was ahead of its time.
Lol
Good one!
"IS" ahead of it's time. Looks like you are too

YAY! :-D

Yes little Alvin, said Mrs Toffler.
Lol
But can these Lovecraftian monstrosities run Crysis 3?
You mean Crysis 1
If you make an interface for display and a bio-graphics-card that communicates with a biochip and port Crysis 3 to Mr Barnatt's OrgaBOARD TA-65X, you might be able to run Crysis 3...
i just realize what a pain it will be once your organic computer gets an actual Virus infection.
Indeed, all kinds of new "hardware" issues may arise . . .
The hackers of the future will be PhD Biologists!

i won’t be impressed until i can run crysis on squirrels.

it would be impressive
LOL
They can run DOOM
This is a little too close to what half life alyx shows inside the combine computers lol
Very interesting, That`s gonna make the phrase `My computer died` very literally.
I didn`t know anything about this. Another great video
"much less clear" how about your vital organs ceasing to work and eventually all of your cells start to decompose, and not regenerate? Pretty sure that's what death is for an organic being.
imagine taking a cockroach and plugging it in your pc and then BAM , thousands of petabytes of storage !

@No how come? He said 125 petabytes from 1 gram of dna
@@umar7151 well its not just compressed dna... but it feels like it should be a bit more
@No welp I looked it up 2.5 peta
Then we must play Doom on it, #1 goal with everything that resembles a computer
I wish I'd known your channel sooner. The implications of these ideas are fascinating to me, and I enjoy your clear, no nonsense presentation.
Of course, if we're harnessing the computing efficiency and storage of organic systems, we're working with their weaknesses too. If this wetware (I prefer bioware) degrades or "ages", it's not silly to suppose they could become infected by pathogens, or catch an actual virus.
Mr マックラ simple, make them make a copper based blood system unlike iron based system we have today, bacterias and viruses would find computer bodies completely uninhabitable!
Same here... just found it today....instantly subbed... this is a very interesting channel
Perhaps, if we master this, we may also master health and genomics.. and sadly what a pipe dream that is with the world's priorities these days :(
All this made my wetware hurt.
Made mine moist.
I forgot to feed my computer and it died :(
Mike Turk Computer rights now!
F
wetware. shows blood cures made from an immunity CPU implant chip in a COVID-19 human that cures cancer kills viruses like the rhinovirus and bacterias like foot and mouth and e.coil. Along with curing physical and learning and mental illnesses too and any other human deficiencies we are born with even STDs. Shows ai blood leach as it kills COVID and other human viruses and bacterias by eating them and producing antibodies like milking a snake of venom to produce antivenom.
My homework? Uh the dog ate my computer.
:)
Sucks when that happens XD
My family photos where on there!!
lol
Feel you, my computer just died on me one time.
yanasitta The dog IS my computer 0_0
This takes the phrase "My PC died" to a whole new level
:)
I find this a little unsettling. Very interesting though.
unsettling
I am reminded of Star Trek's "gel packs", which proved susceptible to infections.
Ah yes, I had forgotten those . . .
To be fair, that was down to the Voyager scriptwriters...
…blooming artistic licence taking!
Ant that was why they removed the wetware and continued to use so-called "isolinear chips" instead, which were a bit slower, but could not be infected.
By the way, people are moving towards growing meat in vats instead of farms, so I'd bet we'll be rather grow computers in vats than in pigs. As someone who worked on a pig farm for almost 2 years, I'd rather greet this.
I agree. He was talking about using pigs to grow and remove computers "again and again" with zero emotion, but that's quite messed up. The ethical implications of this technology... But using printers or vats or other inorganic equipment instead of living things would solve most of them.
We are also working towards growing spare organs for transplantation in the lab instead of in other animals and we already 3D print bones(joints, etc.).
We meddle with DNA, but soon we just 3D print our babies :p
I just couldn't resist XD
Just because we can does that mean we should? How are we defining life these days?
I am just going to leave this on repeat. That way your video increases watch time, and because of that it might get to trending. And I think this video should be there. Well done (y)
Can't wait to pick up a bioprinter from the scrapyard in 2030!
Generic Green Squid gonna have a sweet time with your new bioprinter eh? ;)
I hate to break it to you. That seems quite impossible considering what's happening rn

We have to catch the hamsters first! :)
No that would be hamsterware.. raspberry pi is made out of raspberries everyone knows that lol ;P
I like computers that don't rot, thank you very much.

your brain doesn't rot
White Autumn, yeah, good luck building an entire immune system into those things.
You mean antivirus ;)
lmao
WOW...I do not recall the last time I saw a UA-cam video that informed me about something I knew absolutely nothing about/had not even heard of. But this one did...absolutely fascinating. A bit creepy...but still fascinating.

Wow, mind-blowing stuff. I didn't even know bio-printers existed!! Another great and intriguing video from CJB. Well done, and keep producing more like this!!
Wow, you've been working on this one for a while.. I remember seeing the thumbnail for this video in your video editing video a while back. I'm glad to finally see the video because I've been wondering what the hell it was lol.
Yes, this video has been in production for some time! :)
Another wonderful, and informational video! Thanks for this Christopher! :)
I was making research on that, and you’ve just posted the right video hahha ! Thank you
Fascinating and informative. Thank you for a very good video!
that weird cause my next notification for this video is "How Close Are We to Farming Human Body Parts?"
I have a subscription to Seeker and that video was posted.
already been happening in China - that's how they get rid of people who have different political or belief systems - in particular people who believe in Falun Gong practises. There is a you tube video about how the practitioners of this religion have been rounded up and used as human organ donors
MURDER is not a sign of intelligence - Intelligence has compassion, acceptance of differences the ability to be flexible and open - to heal not destroy. One group obliterating another group to squash different ideas and keep itself in power is not intelligent it is homophobic small minded paranoia and insanity.
Jennifer Gosling So I guess Descartes wasn't intelligent because he said that even if Dogs do cry while you cut them up, it's just like a machine malfunctioning.
Jennifer Gosling Do you believe in absolute morals? Topkek
I have been theorising this for over a decade!
It's so validating to know that someone out there had felt, supposed and theorised the same.
For myself, it all started with the understanding that we are all machines and that every creature too is a machine.
and further than that, things considered "non-living" are also machines.
eventually i came to the realisation that if i can call an "Ant" which doesn't even have a full brain like larger animals "Living",
then one day the lines between Mechanical and Organic will be challenged, because they don't really exist.
I theorised that Robots of the far future could fool us all into thinking they're simply "living animals" because they will be made of Synthetic materials, almost identical to living things of our time.
And to further add to that, I'd argue that Synthetic Humans (Synth's in fallout games) would be undetectable.
and what's even more amazing is the possibility of creating "BioRobots" that can "reproduce" like any other animal, minimising cost and expertise needed to replicate them. which is a bonus should we ever forget how to make them somehow, or if we simply disappear for whatever reason.
Great for exploring new worlds and achieving new heights, robots that look after themselves without even needing to know how, because it's in their DNA
Great post.
It seems a bit self serving to "Like" your comment, but hey thanks, and there ya go "Liked"
I've been watching your channel for a while, but this video made me subscribe. Well done.
Welcome aboard! :)
I suddenly had a weird idea - a single board computer powered by a leech brain
This is a great idea -- the "Raspberry Brain", as it were! :)
I will go one better, how about a genetically engineered / artificially created leech brain powering a SBC?
Just call me Doctor Frankenstein.
It's alive... I tell you, ALIVE ;-)
I want to see a tax-robot called Leech-ulator 2000.

Mister Barnatt. You have succeeded in blowing me away. This was a devastating trip through biocomputers. I think that I will be a bit too old to see any practical advance in my lifetime. It is clear that you have the remarkable ability to distill down difficult subject like this one, into information for the layman. For now, I will stick momentarily to the hard state of transistors and ASICs.
I would like to know if you have encountered the "Transphasor" that was touted as being 1000 times faster than conventional computers. The practical upshot is if we had the say a Pentium computer using "Transphasor" technology we could run rings around today's fastest machines. If you could do a story on those, I for one love to hear about it. As ever your ever learning student.
Thank you so much! Enlightening and thought-provoking!
Thanks.
Very nice video indeed! Thank you, and many thanks to The Royal Society for making their paper available online. Also very beautiful and interesting animation. It reminds me of the first time I visited the location of the Cray II computer that we had been using. The CPU core was submerged in a lighted glass tank full of a green colored dielectric coolant. And bubbles were indeed rising around the core as the machine did its job. When I've described that scene people have been absolutely 'creeped out' even scientists. But as you know no one wants to see the bit sausage being made. Thanks again!
Not unlike the Wraith (Stargate Atlantis).
Highly interesting video as always Chris. Thank you.
My thought exactly (y)
i feel like the Replicators have some characteristics of being "organic". They can pretty much do what organics can do and more. Replicators are able to self repair and a single unit is microscopic.
Indeed, they created Fifth (and the other 4) who then duplicated Samantha Carter.
Stargate is one of the only programs I watch. Honestly, it is :-)
Indeed...
MassDynamic they are a non nano version of grey goo.
Imagine if we grew a super bio computer chips on pigs, then the pigs learned how to use them against us which they would then
take over the world and enslave the human race. Maybe it'll be the pigs who will be the ones to learn to fly.
Great post! :)
Incredible information, thins barriers even more.
Simply incredible. Perfect.
Amazing Video.
Thanks. :)
I love your Style. Very well explained but somehow dead inside. Can identify.
How brilliant & creative work master, very interesting topic as always, surely would like to learn newest updates from the Manchester team as well as the other universities..
Is it possible to dedicate a time for online lectures about this topic in future?
Thanks a lot :)
Thanks for your kind feedback. I have more videos on this kind of topic coming up on both this channel and ExplainingTheFuture at the end of August/early September. Some serious production going on here at the moment! :)
ExplainingComputers most welcome! Excellent news sir! All the best and sincere regards, looking forward for the upcoming content :)
It also reminds me of the "STAR TREK VOYAGER(?) episode in which their computer began to malfunction. The malfunction was traced to a virus in one of the "Gel-paks" that made up the main computer core.
Of course, the Doctor was called upon to eliminate the virus and was the hero of this episode. The voyager spin off" from the Original Star Trek series, I believe, was set in the 24th century which therefore, implies we are on the correct time-line for "practical" Bio-Computing.
You know what, I think I'm going to stop binge watching youtube and finish that thing I was programming. This video has reminded me there is a long way forward and we should all be working to better ourselves for the furtherment of mankind.
I've been running a biocomputer ever since my dog lifted his leg on my WinME system. 😷
It whizzes right along without any need for upgrade. 😂
Dude I was out when I heard “wetware”
Great video! Thank you Sir!
Very interesting, you did a very good job of explaining this subject.
Next video: Organic computers learn to walk.
:)
They decompose, they smell, they need organic energy and they can randomly fart
ste jack electric charge, proteins, etc
Tyler Leyden dude they will naturally evolve and run away from your house trough the window....
José Dourado hope its not to hormonal
texasdee slinglead lol yeah like they will only work if they are in the mood, and if you piss them off they give you the wrong result lol
we're talking ones and zeroes here as far as I understood. So in the end, those bio computers would be just like your normal computer though larger, since you need cells where a computer is down to atomic particles? I seem to be missing the advantage to a computer than you probably need to cool less, feed energy directly and that doesn't run a cancer risk.
Memory is evolving so much it blows my mind. The other day I learned about *nano glass storage*
I had to go on a computer system service call so I’m late. I totally look forward to these videos. Thanks
I love his voice, it's so soothing
You did those CG animations? Cool! What 3d modeling program and renderer was used?
Yes, indeed -- I made these animations in LightWave.
Oh, yes, of course! I subscribed because of the video you made about it, i believe. How long did making those scenes take roughly?
Great sources, I appreciate it!
Wow what a video this week. You've surpassed even your usual infocram. I think I'll be needing one of those implants as my brain is melting from over heating and cannot computer errors. ☺
remarkably scary if not down right frightening. all the terrible things i can think to use this for only means some other person, perhaps less "restrained" than i am, has already thought these nightmares up!! wow.
This is how we make Daleks...

"yo I got a new dog"
"can it run crysis?"
Nice
In brings in the whole question of what is life and its purpose.
Robert Fletcher implying it needs/has a purpose
Indeed. It raises all kinds of ethical questions concerbing the dynamic collections of atoms that we term "life".
@Robert Fletcher,
Not only do you ask an interesting ethical question but also raise questions about theology and philosophy.
What happens if you feed it drugs?
Well, that was one highly packed video, not your run of the mill, plain interesting video. It certainly grabbed my imagination, and yet, medium term, as much as it seems to be Sci-Fi it's feasible. Would like to see more of this, hope if this sort of thing is implemented in the real world it's done ethically. Technically amazing, potentially, in the wrong hands, hideously wrong.
@Free Saxon,
You are right, in the wrong hand this realm of technology could be utterly disastrous. As we have witness throughout the 20 century, this type of subject raises questions surrounding thorny subjects such as eugenics and the definition of what it is to be sentient.
Thinking about this make me want to re-read "Do androids dream of electronic sheep" (aka. Blade runner).
Mark Edworthy yes indeed a good book, and the original film with its atmospheric music was a gem of its time. They imply Blade runner himself was a replicant
i love this dude's work
love this channel.thanks for the videos
Let just hope we won't by accident, create something like Zergs from PC game Starcraft, while playing around with those bio-computers.
One headache about AI development (that one day some scientist will go too far and loose control) is enough for one lifespan :)
And then the Overmind, Microsoft Intel commanded their swarm to divide by zero.
Can't wait to install my organic gpu with pulsating heart and bone structure.
thats why morality is standing in way of progress
I wasnt expecting this today 😊 great vid! well researched!
Thanks Gretchen. :)
very very interesting, thanks for putting this together!
AMD hog architecture ! , :D , so in the future i need to feed my pc :D
be careful, if your computer of the future overheats, it smells like bacon!
You computer already requires water to a certain degree right?
Imagine shaving your computer. At least you won’t have to install fans, because of the sweat. 👍

jerome vet yes, will have feed your PC. Ideally, you will feed it with coffee and Pop Tarts.
damn this was so interesting
Awesome video! Thank you!
There is a whole concept in computer science, called Liquid State Machine. The basic idea is: use some black box, pump some signals in, read the output, and then just try to interpret it. This black box may be whatever, even a piece of wetware. Its purely digital counterpart, called Echo State Machine, is now a standard routine in deep learning, as it is nothing but a special case of a recurrent neural network. But it will be nice to explore the possibilities of having a real wetware.
Brilliant! Thanks for sharing!!! One tool of many... we are on the cusp of incredible things...
the problem with storing data on DNA is that it's really sensitive to background radiation
but even with a 10X redundancy, it can store and absurd amount of data in such a small space
But would you need so much redundancy? And how does one even find out if it’s corrupted
@@moritz584 probably not
there are several methods, but just having duplicates and comparing them to find the bad one is pretty simple
hmmmmm. but. how would they run programs? and could it run crysis?
Eco Ecoví asrking the real questions now!
its work exactly like what you are doing right now...
It can do Boolean logic, has memory and is scalable
Unless there is an unexpected obstacle, I see no reason why one couldn't build a processor out of it
sadly not, only Darude - Sandstorm
It can only run quake
this is so cool thanks for puttin this up!

Thanks.
cool
Don't we already possess the tech to mass produce organic computers? How else did we get 7+ billion of them and counting?
The problem is, using that method, they all have minds of their own.
If this technology ever works, it will indeed mean that your computer could get COVID.
You are very creative, I didn't expect that brain animation so early in video. Perfect fit I can agree without watching the rest of the video that too is an organic computer :) :)
Intel, AMD or Human? Which one should I buy?
:)
AMD, you can't go wrong with Advanced Meat Devices.
STONJAUS But on a serious note, AMD gives most bang for the buck.
imagine you have to feed your computer

Organic computing sounds like the dawn of "skynet" to me .
it sounds like the solution to a war with humanity and robots
But can it run Crysis 3?
This is food for thought all intelligent life is sentient. It's an interesting concept of the future and I think it's more closer than we all think. Great vid Chris happy new year 😋
Thanks. I made this video to make people think. There are few or no ethical issues around fabrication plants that made microprocessors . . . but biochips, well that will be another story. Will/should they have rights?
You cannot assert that ALL intelligent life is sentient. Do you consider a cat or a dog sentient? Doubtful. Are they intelligent? Perhaps, depending on how you define intelligent. So you should be careful about such blanket statements.
Cats and dogs are sentient, I believe you are thinking of sapient, science-fiction confuses those two words more than it does cryonics and cryogenics.
The definitions of both are disputed but sentience is usually defined as the ability to feel physical sensations such as pain or mental sensations such as fear, so starfish and up or regular fish and up depending on who you talk to. Sapience is self awareness and high intelligence. Pretty much anything we consider to be an animal is sentient but only humans and possibly chimpanzees are sapient. And dolphins if you talk to a crackpot.
Someone said once that If you put something in front of a mirror and it immediately recognises itself then it's sapient and understands reflection.
Amazing work! Keep it up! :)
once we can understand biocomputing, we will surely be able to decode the human mind and it's contents. maybe not entirely, but at least to some extent.
True. Big possibilities exist here. The Human Brain Project is already working toward simulating the human brain in a computer: www.humanbrainproject.eu/en/brain-simulation/
Factory on legs.... hmmm... dunno it is a good idea, I think it is not. You talk about a huge amount of storage but what about speed? For example the human brain is fast, however, not as fast like computers of nowadays. Huge amount of storage is nice only when it is quick accessible. And what about wear? OLED is an organic example, wear out faster than other tech. What about defects or disease, bacterial and virus infections, aging (wear), could it be reliable enough to be long lasting and future proof?
The human brain is as fast as any other computer, likely faster seeing as it is pretty much a quantum computer, it is our mind which limits it because we are configured to operate mentally at a speed that compliments what we can achieve physically. To use a computing metaphor we are bottlenecked by the world we live in.
Awesome video, sir.
Congrats. Super video. Please follow up on this computer innovations. Absolutely and desperately needed to save our world.
Regular computer processors eventually degrade, specially overclocked modern CPUs not cooled properly.
