What if the future of computing isn't silicon or quantum—but living neurons? In this groundbreaking episode of Inside Assemble AI, we sit down with Dr. Ewelina Kurtys to explore the fascinating world of biological computing and wetware bioprocessors.

Dr. Kurtys takes us inside Final Spark's ambitious mission to build thinking machines powered by living neurons—systems that could process information with unprecedented energy efficiency compared to traditional silicon chips. From the neuroscience behind programming living cells to the technical challenges of maintaining biological systems, we uncover how this emerging technology could reshape artificial intelligence as we know it.

We dive deep into the implications for AGI development, examining how biological stability might reduce AI hallucinations and why hybrid computing architectures combining silicon, quantum, and biological elements could define our technological future. Dr. Kurtys also addresses the critical ethical considerations surrounding wetware bioprocessors and shares her vision for scalable biocomputing systems.

If you're curious about the convergence of neuroscience and AI, the energy crisis facing generative AI, or simply want to glimpse the next frontier in computing technology, this conversation will challenge everything you thought you knew about artificial intelligence.
