>>23032 >Honestly if ethics doesnt bother you simply growing a woman in an artificial womb to use as a sex slave would be much easier and cheaper Except it isn't, since artificial wombs don't exist in reality, and there also might be some legal issues. Also, we don't just develop sex slaves here but companions and mothers. Women will always be tempted to get 'their rights", while well developed robowaifus won't, even if they had the choice in terms of power and legalities.

>>23085 >while well developed robowaifus won't, even if they had the choice in terms of power and legalities. This. What's almost ironic in the end is that robowaifus will turn out to be much more like the form women were intended to be by God (helpful companions to a man), while Current Year Stronk, Independynts fancy themselves to be some kind of men. Lol.

I expect that privately there are such thngs. A multi-millionare with a say ten year program funded at $10 million a year could likely do this "if" you totally disregarded ethics and destroyed all the beings that didn't work out. In fct a VERY IMPORTANT fact about reproduction is that eggs can be made from Female skin cells. It's THE SPERM that kicks off the dividing to start humans forming. So as soon as you get a artificial womb you could pay a girl for a few cells, combine with your sperm and have kids that no Women could take away from you. I personally think this will happen in the future and if Women wish to be a part of a family they will join a Males preexisting children family. The 2 kids and divorce tread mill is just too much risk for most Males and is getting worse.

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-023-37752-x >Biological computation is becoming a viable and fast-growing alternative to traditional electronic computing. Here we present a biocomputing technology called Trumpet: Transcriptional RNA Universal Multi-Purpose GatE PlaTform. Trumpet combines the simplicity and robustness of the simplest in vitro biocomputing methods, adding signal amplification and programmability, while avoiding common shortcomings of live cell-based biocomputing solutions. We have demonstrated the use of Trumpet to build all universal Boolean logic gates. We have also built a web-based platform for designing Trumpet gates and created a primitive processor by networking several gates as a proof-of-principle for future development. The Trumpet offers a change of paradigm in biocomputing, providing an efficient and easily programmable biological logic gate operating system. https://phys.org/news/2023-05-biocomputing-method-enzymes-catalysts-dna-based.html Not something that would likely be used in a robowaifu, but it's the 4th biocomputing approach to make headlines this year.

>>23118 >>>artificial wombs don't exist in reality >Actually some early prototypes do exsit Everyone here knows that. But it's besides the point, since it's an early prototype, especially the thing with the lamb is not for the early stages. This will require a much different approach. >eggs can be made from Female skin cells Actually, it's just human skin cells, not female. Which means men could have children without women, which would be weird and feels kinda gay. But, if we get to a point of making artificial cells from DNA in the lab as well, those wouldn't refer to a specific human. Then Sandman MGTOW had actually a good idea, in between his wild speculations and often bad ideas: Cloning is one thing, and he brought that up. Why even go on making humans from two people? Then he had the idea of just making these egg cells from one's owns cells. To use those for your own child. Which he also called cloning, where I disagree. That said, the idea is quite good. It might work better than real cloning. Also it might be easier to do it, bypassing laws and cutting down on the need of a female donor. You could let one lab make the egg cells from your skin cells, then go to some lab and tell them these are egg cells from a female donor. Then have them make a child from your own genetic material by fertilizing the egg cell... Well, I guess in a way it's like you'd had a child with your (not existing) twin sister, but I'm more comfortable with that, than picking another man as the skin (egg) cell donor for my child.

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-023-40163-z >Growing colonies of the split-gill fungus Schizophyllum commune show action potential-like spikes of extracellular electrical potential. We analysed several days of electrical activity recording of the fungus and discovered three families of oscillatory patterns. Very slow activity at a scale of hours, slow activity at a scale of 10 min and very fast activity at scale of half-minute. We simulated the spiking behaviour using FitzHugh–Nagume model, uncovered mechanisms of spike shaping. We speculated that spikes of electrical potential might be associated with transportation of nutrients and metabolites. This was done by the same guy doing the mushroom biocomputers.

This paper explores an experimental endeavour that successfully incorporates living, self-regenerating, and reactive Ganoderma sessile mycelium into a model cyborg figurine, creating a bio-cybernetic entity. The mycelium, cultivated using established techniques, was homogeneously grown on the cyborg model’s surface, demonstrating robust reactivity to various stimuli such as light exposure and touch. This innovative merger points towards the future of sustainable biomaterials and the potential integration of these materials into new and existing technologies.

>>2184 Creating lab grown women is the end game, but that isn't really a possibility right now. I think it's possible that we can create synthetic cells fit with basic cell functions to maintain the body's integrity. Controlled water absorption and excretion is needed. It's possible to make artificial glands using synthetic cells that function differently from the others. We could use water content in the body to have the glands produce lubricants. I'm thinking we use alginic acid to accomplish this. Then we could bind the synth cells together to form body parts. The mind portion of the body would still be computerized however.

Another biocomputer makes headlines. It is from China though so take it with grain of salt. https://www.thestack.technology/scientists-make-dna-computer-breakthrough/ >A team of researchers from China’s Shanghai Jiao Tong University have created what may be the world’s first programmable DNA computer. >In a paper published in prestigious magazine Nature they explained how they created DNA-based programmable gate arrays or “DPGAs” that can support more than 100 billion distinct computational circuits.

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-06484-9 >DNA-based programmable gate arrays for general-purpose DNA computing >The past decades have witnessed the evolution of electronic and photonic integrated circuits, from application specific to programmable1,2. Although liquid-phase DNA circuitry holds the potential for massive parallelism in the encoding and execution of algorithms3,4, the development of general-purpose DNA integrated circuits (DICs) has yet to be explored. Here we demonstrate a DIC system by integration of multilayer DNA-based programmable gate arrays (DPGAs). We find that the use of generic single-stranded oligonucleotides as a uniform transmission signal can reliably integrate large-scale DICs with minimal leakage and high fidelity for general-purpose computing. Reconfiguration of a single DPGA with 24 addressable dual-rail gates can be programmed with wiring instructions to implement over 100 billion distinct circuits. Furthermore, to control the intrinsically random collision of molecules, we designed DNA origami registers to provide the directionality for asynchronous execution of cascaded DPGAs. We exemplify this by a quadratic equation-solving DIC assembled with three layers of cascade DPGAs comprising 30 logic gates with around 500 DNA strands. We further show that integration of a DPGA with an analog-to-digital converter can classify disease-related microRNAs. The ability to integrate large-scale DPGA networks without apparent signal attenuation marks a key step towards general-purpose DNA computing.

>>25568 >>25569 I'm not entirely sure about that given that there's always a possibility that you may be dealing with some necrotic tissue if it's not being properly supplied with nutrition. Lab grown organic animal cells are still in their infancy stages with a lot of regulations and moral/ethical concerns impeding further development. I'm all for it as i'm an anarcho capitalist, but there are too many factors at play right now regarding that stuff. Alginic hydrogel is more than appropriate for making soft muscle actuators and other body parts for gynoids. Not to mention how well it is with being anti-microbial. What we do with this approach wil act as a stepping stone for further development inching us toward our goal of fixing the woman problem. My idea has a lot of holes as all of the others do regarding fabrication and lack of adequate R&D, but it'll just have to sit on the shelf for now with all of the other grandiose things I've thought up. I have more important matters to tend to for now. My primary concern is with the advent of government creeping into every facet of normal life. This will also affect any robot wife progress that could happen in the foreseeable future. I'm taking proactive measures to gain the knowledge required to build tools that will allow me and other people to circumvent this phenomenon. For now, sex bots maids will just have to sit on the shelf.

https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.01.21.576528v1 Functionalising the electrical properties of Kombucha zoogleal mats for biosensing applications Kombucha is a type of tea that is fermented using yeast and bacteria. During this process, a film made of cellulose is produced. This film has unique properties such as biodegradability, flexibility, shape conformability, and ability to self-grow, as well as be produced across customised scales. In our previous studies, we demonstrated that Kombucha mats exhibit electrical activity represented by spikes of electrical potential. We propose using microbial fermentation as a method for in situ functionalisation to modulate the electroactive nature of Kombucha cellulose mats, where graphene and zeolite were used for the functionalisation. We subjected the pure and functionalised Kombucha mats to mechanical stimulation by applying different weights and geometries. Our experiments demonstrated that Kombucha mats functionalised with graphene and zeolite exhibit memfractive properties and respond to load by producing distinctive spiking patterns. Our findings present incredible opportunities for the in situ development of functionalised hybrid materials with sensing, computing, and memory capabilities. These materials can self-assemble and self-grow after fusing their living and synthetic components. This study contributes to an emergent area of research on bioelectronic sensing and hybrid living materials, opening up exciting opportunities for use in smart wearables, diagnostics, health monitoring and energy harvesting applications.

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S2590238523006483 Biohybrid bipedal robot powered by skeletal muscle tissue Recently, there has been a growing interest in the development of biohybrid robots that combine synthetic components with biological materials, aiming to incorporate advanced biomaterial functions into robotic systems. Conventional biohybrid robots excel in large turning movements. To address this limitation, we report a biohybrid robot equipped with two legs and cultured skeletal muscle tissue, emphasizing the replication of subtle turning movements observed in human bipedal locomotion. The robot successfully demonstrated forward-stop motions and accurate turning compared to conventional biohybrid robots. These findings offer valuable insights for the advancement of soft robots powered by muscle tissue and have the potential to contribute to a deeper understanding of biological locomotion mechanisms. This constructive approach may pave the way for further mimicking the intricacies of the human gait mechanism in biohybrid robotics development.

Not sure if this belongs in this thread but it is biology related and it is cool. https://digitalcommons.fairfield.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1294&context=engineering-facultypubs Magnetotaxis as a Means for Nanofabrication >Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB), discovered in early 1970s contain single-domain crystals of magnetite (Fe3O4) called magnetosomes that tend to form a chain like structure from the proximal to the distal pole along the long axis of the cell. The ability of these bacteria to sense the magnetic field for displacement, also called magnetotaxis, arises from the magnetic dipole moment of this chain of magnetosomes. In aquatic habitats, these organisms sense the geomagnetic field and traverse the oxic-anoxic interface for optimal oxygen concentration along the field lines. Here we report an elegant use of MTB where magnetotaxis of Magnetospirillum magneticum (classified as AMB-1) could be utilized for controlled navigation over a semiconductor substrate for selective deposition. We examined 50mm long coils made out of 18AWG and 20AWG copper conductors having diameters of 5mm, 10mm and 20mm for magnetic field intensity and heat generation. Based on the COMSOL simulations and experimental data, it is recognized that a compound semiconductor manufacturing technology involving bacterial carriers and carbon-based materials such as graphene and carbon nanotubes would be a desirable choice in the future.

In contrast, fungi can be easily cultured and are robust in extreme conditions. Taking advantage of fungal mycelia’s natural light sensitivity, Mishra et al. developed an electrical interface to both house the mycelia and measure their electrophysiological action potentials. A control model was then developed to use the rhythmic voltage spikes from the living mycelia to control the locomotion of both a soft starfish-inspired robot and a wheeled robot. Robot trajectories could be altered by stimulating the mycelia with ultraviolet light. —Melisa Yashinski
