      Summary (because this is a weird one!):

      An interdisciplinary team of researchers from Cornell University in the US and the University of Florence in Italy took steps to find out, putting a culture of the edible mushroom species *Pleurotus eryngii* (also known as the king oyster mushroom) in control of a pair of vehicles, which can twitch and roll across a flat surface.

      Through a series of experiments, the researchers showed it was possible to use the mushroom’s electrophysiological activity as a means of translating environmental cues into directives, which could, in turn, be used to drive a mechanical device’s movements.

      Was this created because they haven’t been able to take human brains over like they do with insects? So they can attack us in different forms?
