    In some ways, a single cell is more like an entire artificial neural network.Real neurons have some amazing properties that individual neurons in ANNs do not. It's still unclear how we can exploit those properties to improve AI.

    Of possible interest is John T. Bonner's book The Evolution of Culture in Animals

    It's an amazing design. Did we look at this to create the electric motor?

    It would be mistake to assume that something which appears to be a single cell is a separate from its environment. Space connects all things and if Space happens to be awareness / consciousness then intelligence would be everywhere affecting all things.
