Fred Jordan, co-founder of FinalSpark, joins us to explore one of the most radical frontiers in modern technology: biological computing built from living human neurons. He explains how neural organoids grown from stem cells are connected to electrodes and accessed remotely over the internet, offering a radically more energy-efficient alternative to traditional silicon-based AI. The conversation covers: · How living neurons know how to learn · Training neural tissue using dopamine-based reward systems · The overlooked role of glial cells in intelligence · AI agents running experiments on biological networks · Why biological computing uses far less energy than silicon · Ethical questions and research limitations · What this technology could mean for the future of AI and computing #austinandmattpodcast #austinandmatt #podcastclips #podcast #FinalSpark #FredJordan #BioComputing #NeuralNetworks #Neuroscience #FutureTechnology #AIResearch #BiologicalComputers #SciencePodcast #science #ai #artificialintelligence #computing #biotech
