Engineered cells, living computers, human augmentation, bio-AI convergence. These aren’t science fiction โ they’re experiments happening right now. We explore what comes next.
How a 2.5-meter predator generates 860 volts at will, and what engineers are learning from its stacked muscle-cell architecture to build biological batteries.
Geobacter species transfer electrons across centimeters of sediment, behaving like living electrical cables. Researchers now want to farm this process for clean energy.
Neuromorphic chips that mimic biological signal processing are already outperforming silicon on specific tasks. The gap is closing faster than expected.

Are Humans Already Cyborgs โ and Have We Always Been?
We use glasses to extend vision, pacemakers to regulate heartbeats, and smartphones as external memory. The question isn’t whether humans will merge with technology โ it’s whether we’ve ever been separate from it. A deep reflection on the electric nature of the human condition.
โก At what point does a prosthetic become part of the self?
๐ง If bioelectric patterns define consciousness, what does that mean for AI?
๐ฑ Is the boundary between biological and artificial already meaningless?
