Beautiful website. They massively over-claim on their science though. Their 'tech' is nothing special, people have been culturing and recording from neurons for years. And their claims of 'sentient' neurons in a dish should be taken as being somewhat flexible with the meaning of the word.

When I see something so over-engineered on the aesthetics front, my knee jerk reaction is to think "this is overcompensating, and i guess they don't really have what they promise"

plus it feels like in the 90' where "webmasters" would try to impress you with an Adobe Flash animation. So bad

The website reminds me of mid 90s multimedia presentations on CDs. It takes a long time to scroll and read and there is not much to learn about them. Maybe their research page would be a better starting point https://corticallabs.com/research.html

The latest article is "Critical dynamics arise during structured information presentation within embodied in vitro neuronal networks"
