Cool cool but scary if you think what they could do when it advances in years to come.

I don't know if it'll develop a conciousness, but it's still amazing. And the idea of manufacturing something like this is unbelievable, i hope this goes somewhere, medically at least.

I meant that it's created. I didn't want to call it "synthetic" because technically it's not, but it was produced in a lab.

Ohh scary! i just noticed this is kindof similar to "Blade Runner".... or maybe not, but if you really stretch it it could be.

wow, that's pretty cool... but just hope the computer brains don't evolve and try to take over the world... damn matrix... no wonder I get freaked out about intelligent computers... I don't want them to turn against humans.

Meh, just put computer brains in control of all our transport systems.

What's the worst that could happen?

Yes but didn't they turn out to be good movies?
i think the special effects in realy life would be even better.
The scientists would be stupid NOT to connect the brain to a gun toting, virtually indestructable machiene.
