I am not sure lack of immune system is our main concern so far at FinalSpark. I believe it has more to do with the side effects of physical contacts of neurons (and glial cells) with not fully biocompatible materials like the electrodes.
What does a "Hello World" for something like this look like? Is it a API, do I push a docker image to it or something? How do you interact with this sort of system?
There a Python interface. The API enables to send stimulations, measure action potentials and deliver dopamine in real-time. There are 2 videos that explains this in more details on: https://finalspark.com/neuroplatform/
Envelope calculation: 1 brain worth of neurons would make 10 million instances available for hire, and at 500 USD per instance would give monthly recurring revenue (MRR) at 5 billion USD.
How hard is it to do something like this on your platform [0]? Are there any other real-world examples where people are using your platform to do something similar?
If you talk about learning to play doom, I would say it is unrealistic at this point and still a topic of research, the purpose of the neuroplatform is precisely to find reliable ways to train neurons to perform a specific task.
Well, we already have systems with 32 electrodes, and we are looking at alternative to increase this by several orders of magnitude. I hope we have something next year.
