摘要

People have been recruiting other species to serve human needs for at least 10,000 years. We have turned plants into crops and animals into beasts of burden; even microorganisms have been pressed into service as fermenters. Yet until now no nonhuman species has ever been harnessed to do intellectual work on our behalf. That could change. Biologists and computer scientists have designed digital logic gates based on the metabolism of living cells, with the aim of eventually building a computer out of colonies of Escherichia coli or some other single-celled organism. But perhaps build is the wrong verb here; the plan is to grow or breed or culture a computer.
