I don't get why you'd want a computer to be dissolvable or bendable...

Sure it doesn't seem like that would matter, but they seem to be trying to spin it as some sort of advantage?

Sounds sinister to me.

FTA:

The immediate application lies in bendable medical patches and short-term wearable monitors that process health data directly on the body and dissolve when no longer needed.

There could be medical applications

I mean, I can think of uses. They are extremely niche, such as a low-impact self-destructable rubber ducky, or a use case where you don’t want waste left around. But yeah I can’t think of many.
