      Submission Statement:

      >Living neurons usually fire between roughly 70 and 130 millivolts, while many artificial versions have needed 0.5 volts or more.

      >“Previous versions of artificial neurons used 10 times more voltage, and 100 times more power, than the one we have created,” said Yao.

      >That gap wastes energy and makes direct contact harder, because stronger signals can overwhelm delicate cellular activity instead of matching it.

      >By bringing the voltage down, the new neuron cleared the main barrier that had kept bio-inspired hardware mostly theoretical.

      This is extremely interesting, and the title is *mostly* not click-bait – but I would argue that adding on „with the human brain“ is at least partially misleading:

      „Normal activity in the heart cells left the artificial neuron silent, but a drug that sped up their rhythm triggered electrical spikes in the circuit.

      **That result did not prove a human brain link, but it did prove real-time conversation with living cells**.“

      The main current-day application appears to be wearable devices. Basically because these artificial neurons can „hear“ or process body signals directly, without „amplification (that) increases both power consumption and the circuit’s complexity“.

      At the end of the article it says:

      „Much more testing still lies ahead, especially with true neurons and long-term stability, before anyone can promise implants or brain links. …. Future progress will depend on better sensors, longer tests, and proof in nerve tissue, but the boundary looks less rigid now.“

      Again – *incredibly interesting and important science is happening here*. Just not any kind of new brain interfaces happening any time soon as a result of this research.
