A cultured brain mass? Doubtful. That wouldn’t be any better than using electronics. We would have to design it in it’s entirety and we’d never make it small enough. The whole point of a REAL brain is that its evolved to a complexity that we cant even approach yet… even an iguana’s brain is light years ahead of any computer mankind has produced, no mater what it’s composition. The next logical step? Using pre-existing brains. Brains who’s structures have been studied enough to be predictably used. Anyone know who’s brains I’m talking about? Thats right my little meat bags, HUMAN BRAINS!
I predict allot more missing people in the future. Hell human brain harvesting might become a major source of income for poverty stricken nations. Hell, lets just keep the kids that embroider our ironic T-shirts a little longer and when they cant work anymore because the muscles in their legs are too atrophied we crack open that skull and use that brain to power a super computer that will maintain dossiers on every human being with a credit history. YAAAAY! Technology is fun!

I wish to die, but my programming won’t allow me to.
