After watching the Matrix (abeit, need some powerful stuff to understand it), I wondered, can use harness Bioelectricity to save ourselves from the enrgy crisis? (Barring the moral issue.)

I doubt it could happen anytime soon, we don't even have the technology to change heat into electricity somewhat efficiently, let stand use human beings/anything else of relatively small size that radiates little heat as a power source.

Um, you need babies for that.
Wine in hand, in the other, Quran,
Both halal I do and haram,
In this incomplete world of a sham,
Neither Pagan I am, nor Musselman!


Omar Khayyam

Come, come, whoever you are,
Wanderer, idolater, worshipper of fire,
Come even though you have broken your vows a thousand times,
Come, and come yet again.
Ours is not a caravan of despair

Meh, I think a fully grown adult conducts more electricity than a feeble baby

Also it should be unable to move. Whom do you think of using? Death Row inmates? You need a mass scale harvesting for dat.

You have a point there, why not just drug those said inmates?

Why drug them? I say if it benefits society in a positive way, it's worth more than paying for food and all the other perks of being a death row inmate.

You do mean to the electricity thing? Or put them together so they have a "perfect match"? And the whole "society's rejects" thing would not go over well for human rights groups, other countries, and probably only a quarter of the Senate :P

The matrix was kind of dumb "oh I'm an infinetly intelligent robot~ you know what would be a good idea? Using babies and humans as batteries~ yes the animals that only live for about 70-90 years~"

What you really need to do would be to selectively breed some new creature and, over generations, breed them for Longevity, Passivity, and boost its metabolism-gene-splicing the mild electrical current producing abilities of, say, an electric eel-and you'd have an animal that could be "harvested" for its work.
Or, make it a plant, for even better ease of control.
All right, you primitive screwheads, listen up! You see this? This...is my BOOMSTICK!

What if we bio-engineered some sort of algae that instead of giving off oxygen and hydrogen as it's waste product it produce electricity..or some kind of burnable gas. I'm just throwing ideas out here.

Second Law of Thermodynamics

It takes a hell of a lot more energy to sustain human life than you'll get back in body heat/electrical impulse

That is only one reason why the Matrix is fundamentally logically flawed

The other is besides ignoring the basic physical laws of the universe (lol) you could just use cows and computer generate an endless grassy field (mootrix)
