    slow clap

    Well done. Your mother must be so proud of your ability to pointlessly “insult” people you disagree with instead of even attempting to see the other side.

      There is nothing presented by you that is in good faith here.

        I wasn’t asked to present anything or elaborate. I instead was insulted.

        But sure, if that’s how you want to justify it, you go right ahead.

      Dude, you set the tone with “disgusting Frankenstein science”. That’s not how you start a nuanced discussion. If you want me to “see the other side” you should have made an effort to actually communicate something beside “progress bad”

        Using human brain cells to power processors is fine with you?

        Those “human brain cells” is what makes us, us. It’s what makes humans human.

        Growing them in a lab to put into the PlayStation 10’s CPU (or whatever) is a disgusting perversion and raises very real ethical questions.

        How many cells until we go from CPU to ‘living being’? Do these cells feel pain? When would they get the capability? How would we even know?

        You could have just thought about it for a second, as actually, “Frankenstein science” sums it up pretty well.

        Do you understand now?

        So yes, there is a very real downside to this “progress” and saying stupid shit about imaginary friends to a stranger online in a pathetic attempt to insult won’t make them go away. But you do you, I guess, ‘dude’

          Wow, you really made an effort here to sound extra condescending. To answer your questions.

          We use human neurons for lots of stuff, mainly to research how they work, but also to understand neuronic activities in general. We also have created those organoids for a while, so this is nothing new. In fact, they are so common they even appeared in show The Big Bang Theory.

          Second, they can’t feel pain and never will. These are HIGHLY specialized cells, who rely on other cells and nerves between them to realize a feeling of pain, and even then they can only process it when they have build the necessary structures, which requires millions of neurons alone. They will never turn into something alive.

          You could have just thought about this for a second, but you chose to disparage the work of scientists because it doesn’t fit into your narrow moral construct.

          Do you understand now?

            Wow, you really made an effort here to sound extra condescending. To answer your questions.

            My first interaction with you was a negative one when you decided to be a condescending dickhead instead if interacting with me in good faith. Ergo, you got it back.

            Don’t be all surprised pickachu.gif when you get treated in the same way. Dickhead.

            Edit: I’m blocking you now. I won’t see your response. Continue to be an asshole if you want, I won’t be wasting another second on you.
