Call me crazy but it just feels spiritually evil to make minibrains out of autistic babies' stem cells to see what autism is about when u could just fuckin ask an autistic person what's up

Lab-grown 'minibrains' may have just confirmed a leading theory about autism
Excessive brain growth in the womb has been directly tied to autism in toddlers in new research involving lab-grown "minibrains."

Take cop stem cells and grow cop minibrains to find out why cops are like that, can cops learn to love and be civilized people, what can pregnant people do to avoid having a cop child, do vaccines cause cop? MANY SUCH QUESTIONS

Scientists just grew the 1st-ever 'minibrains' from multiple people's cells
Hybrid brain organoids could be used to test how people respond differently to drugs before clinical trials begin, researchers say.

What destroys me is that AI writing is *shit,* but the minibrains with business degrees can't read anyway, so they can't tell the difference between the mindless blather of slop and my work.

I've come to have so much respect for octopuses in recent years. They have three hearts and NINE brains -- one main brain behind their eyes, like us, and nine minibrains on their eight arms. They are very cool.

(Wondering if using "Neanderthal minibrains" is meant to escape the scrutiny that this kind of experimentation with human brains would attract. Is it ethical to experiment with the brains of sentient but now extinct hominins?)

I learned last month that octopuses have nine brains and I have to say, it's still messing me up. Main dashboard brain and eight minibrains in the arms. Feel like God was out raving the night before that particular bit of the creation process.

I just need more evidence that some thoughts aren't ghosts whispering and additionally that the minibrains cannot under any circumstance feel pain or distress before I can get on board

Cephalopod brains are doughnut-shaped organs built around the oesophagus. And a large number of a cephalopod’s neurons (more than half in the case of octopuses) are located in the eight minibrains that control the arms
