Rapid advances in human brain organoid technologies have prompted the question of their consciousness. Although brain organoids resemble many facets of the brain, their shortcomings strongly suggest that they do not fit any of the operational definitions of consciousness. As organoids gain internal processing systems through statistical learning and closed loop algorithms, interact with the external world, and become embodied through fusion with other organ systems, questions of biosynthetic consciousness will arise.
人类脑类器官技术的迅速发展引发了关于其是否具有意识的问题。尽管脑类器官在许多方面与大脑相似，但其缺点有力地表明它们不符合任何关于意识的操作性定义。随着类器官通过统计学习和闭环算法获得内部处理系统，与外部世界相互作用，并通过与其他器官系统融合而实体化，生物合成意识的问题将会出现。
