Human brain cells set to power two new data centers, thanks to 'body-in-the-box' CL1 — Cortical Labs targets the AI energy crisis with biological computer that reportedly uses less energy than a calculator

A data center.

Cortical Labs, the Australian tech startup behind the CL1 biological computer, has just announced a new partnership to establish data centers using its experimental product, Bloomberg reports. The biotech company has partnered with data center company DayOne to establish the two data centers, powered by the ‘body-in-the-box’ CL1s, in Australia and Singapore.

This isn’t the first we’ve seen from Cortical Labs in the last twelve months. The company has already appeared on our radar with the CL1’s launch last March, with an update just a week ago that showcased its ability to play DOOM. Now, the Australian startup is looking at a more practical use for its product, thanks to these new data centers.
