Does this actually exist somewhere, or is just someone's crazy idea that they've never proven?

There have been some rudimentary prototypes built, but that's about it. Some are capable of very simple tasks.

When I heard them talk about "wetware" on west world i thought they were just making it up.

I feel like there has to be a better link for this. A paper somewhere?

A bit of googling can get you a publication history of the researcher mentioned as pioneering the field: https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=en&user=q0n-slAAAAAJ... . From a glance, there aren't any actual biological engineering papers here. And he's a physicist, not a biologist.

So, I suspect that there aren't papers on it because no one is actually doing it.

What is this a new hybrid hype based on Frankenstein and NN?
