The use of cloned brain cells is a new thing in robotics. Chinese researchers used cloned brain cells to make computers or control units for robots. These kinds of systems are new and fundamental tools. The ability to use human neurons as a computer opens an interesting and, at the same time, terrifying thing.
It makes it possible to create robots and computers with the same intelligence level as humans. This kind of technology is the thing that can revolutionize robotics. And it can escalate into many other things.
The Neuralink-type neuro-implanted microchips and these kinds of tools bring those kinds of robots into reality. Cloned brains can installed on a robot body using a microchip, that connects to the computer that controls the robot body with living brain tissue. The system can be put into the occipital nerve.
"A team of Chinese scientists used stem cells to build the brain and paired it with a computer chip that passes instructions to the robot's body that helps move its limbs, avoid obstacles and track targets" (https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-13592197/Chinese-scientists-robot-powered-human-brain.html)
And it allows us to transmit neural impulses from the brains to the receiving microchip. That microchip can control the robot body or it can resend the information to the nervous system, that is below the neck. This is a suitable technology to restore the ability to move to people, who are paralyzed.
The robot with living brains is actually, the brain in a vat. The robot system can involve a nutrient production unit. The system must feed brains with nutrients and protect that brain tissue against viruses and bacteria. The system must involve living bone marrow that allows it to create blood cells, that feed those neurons and defend them against bacteria.
The living brain-controlled robots can have "local brains", which means every single robot body must have its life support system, that keeps those neurons alive. Bone marrow and blood cells require nutrients. So that they can feed those neurons.
Or the brains can operate robots remotely using the internet. In that system brain in a vat is in the laboratory. The system is connected to the external body through the internet. The system can change the body that it wants to control very fast. And the robot bodies might also have remote-control abilities. That means robots are not like humans at all.
