The cells learn how to fly an F-22
"Usually, within 10 to 15 minutes, it's pretty much flying the plane," DeMarse says.
And then, after about 15 minutes, it's all over. The neurons can't remember how to fly the plane anymore, so the next time the experiment is run, the neurons have to be taught all over again."
The technology of intelligence may become mundane, which is probably as it should be.
What about consciousness... a notion of self. Maybe that is more narcisism than anything else, that we reserve to ourselves in a rather unconscious manner.

I guess they couldn't think of anything more useful for the neurons to do than to control a fighter plane? How sad.
It's called "how to fund your research". For details google: Eisenhower military-industrial complex speach
