Swiss startup powers computers with lab grown mini human brains - Welcome To The Matrix

Excerpt:
"The Neuroplatform is made up of 16 spherical brain organoids, or miniature human brains grown in a lab.
The organoids that the Neuroplatform gives access to are made up of about 10,000 living neurons from stem cells derived from human skin tissue, according to Jordan.
These tiny spheres, about 0.5 mm (0.02 in) wide, are kept in sterile incubators at body temperature, provided with water and nutrients and connected to an electrical circuit with small electrodes, according to the founders’ research paper in Frontiers.
Using these specialized electrodes, scientists can send electrical signals into brain organoids and measure the resulting responses.
...
Users can mimic memory function by using periodic electrical stimulation to reinforce synapses through repetition, thus making desired pathways stronger.
Researchers do this by training the organoids through a reward system. The organoids are rewarded with dopamine, the neurotransmitter responsible for pleasure (and addiction).
Meanwhile, as “punishment,” the organoids are exposed to chaotic stimuli, such as irregular electrical activity.
A live view of the biochips working in real-time can be found at www.finalspark.com/live."

Or to be clear. Babel. Is this not building the tower of babel? Creating brains/life so we can claim we are "Gods". That we no longer need God.
Maybe it's just me...
For the record, I haven't need god in half a century, certainly none wrapped up in the power-grabbing trappings organized religion which can clearly be seen through as complete bullshit and hypocrisy. The faster we all shed this, and develop simple logical basis for our beliefs, the faster we can ditch the emotional strings government dangles us at the end of.
Abby, Abby something.....

and likely a clear violation of the Nurnberg Protocol
Guess there's more than one way to skin this cat.
