Wissenschaftler fordern dringend Regulierung für „lebende Roboter“ – Ingenieure entwickeln zunehmend künstliche Roboter aus echtem, lebendem Gewebe und Zellen

From the article

>More regulation and better ethical frameworks are required in the development of “living robots” researchers have said.

>Increasingly, engineers are creating robots that rely not only on artificial components but also living tissue and [cells](https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/cells), grown in a lab, that can be harnessed for their capabilities.

>But the growth of that technology has not been matched by an understanding of the ethical and governance concerns that the technologies present, a team of multidisciplinary researchers have warned in a major intervention.

Ridiculously premature to ask for regulation of stuff that is light-years away from being commercially viable. Quit asking the government to tell you what to do and focus on getting something to actually work in a way that is useful in the real world.
