Inside The Lab That’s Growing Mushroom Computers
- Charlotte Hu #IndustryNews
tl;dr: “…Researchers can use the presence or absence of a spike as their zero or one, and code the different timing and spacing of the spikes that are detected to correlate to the various gates seen in computer programming language (or, and, etc). Further, if you stimulate mycelium at two separate points, then conductivity between them increases, and they communicate faster, and more reliably, allowing memory to be established.
