FIRST METHOD. "Mind uploading may potentially be accomplished by either of two methods: Copy-and-Transfer or Gradual Replacement of neurons. In the case of the former method, mind uploading would be achieved by scanning and mapping the salient features of a biological brain, and then by copying, transferring, and storing that information state into a computer system or another computational device." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind_uploading View in LinkedIn

SECOND METHOD. "The simulated mind could be within a virtual reality or simulated world, supported by an anatomic 3D body simulation model. Alternatively, the simulated mind could reside in a computer that's inside (or connected to) a humanoid robot or a biological body." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind_uploading View in LinkedIn

EXTANT TOOLS. "According to supporters, many of the tools and ideas needed to achieve mind uploading already exist or are currently under active development; however, they will admit that others are, as yet, very speculative, but still in the realm of engineering possibility." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind_uploading View in LinkedIn

MEMORIES. "Canadian psychologist Donald Hebb suggested that memories are nothing more than associations encoded in a network. In the brain, those associations are formed by neurons firing simultaneously or in sequence." http://www.popsci.com/article/science/neuroscientist-who-wants-upload-humanity-computer View in LinkedIn

A FEW LITTLE PREDICTIONS. "The progress of biology, neuroscience and computer science makes it clear that some time during the twenty-first century we will master the technologies of mind and life. We will build machines more intelligent than ourselves, and modify our own brains and bodies to increase our intelligence, live indefinitely and make other changes." (Bill Hibbard). https://lnkd.in/d3NdcHS View in LinkedIn

UPLOADED WORM. "How far away are we from uploading the first mind? A worm's mind has already been uploaded, but their brains work in a very different way to mammals. But, in ten years, I think it'll be possible to upload the mind of a fruit fly. From thereon, the human brain is a little hard to predict, but I really hope it will be in my lifetime." http://www.vice.com/read/randal-koene-brain-uploading-438 View in LinkedIn

OPEN WORM PROJECT. "The open source project recently had its first major breakthrough when its software -- modeled on the neurons of the worm's nervous system -- independently controlled a Lego robot. The machine's sensors, without any prior programming, made the robot behave in a similar fashion to C. elegans, approaching and backing away from obstacles or stimulated by food." https://lnkd.in/dfAzF4Z View in LinkedIn
