A man's brain on a small cubic glass container, on top of a chip, is connected by a tubule that pumps nutrients in it. The brain learned how to play Doom in one week.
The brain is wirelessly connected by USB transmitter into a PC. Then it thinks of arrow keys and Doom guy moves in a 3D space and then it thinks about pressing Ctrl and Doom guy shoots, etc.
By using a punishment/reward method, the cells were electro-shocked for mistakes. Shocks stopped when it had learned to play the game right.
