2045 INITIATIVE GOALS. "To create an international research center for cybernetic immortality to advance practical implementations of the main technical project – the creation of the artificial body and the preparation for subsequent transfer of individual human consciousness to such a body.” http://2045.com/manifest/ View in LinkedIn

“The Mind as the Software of the Brain.” https://lnkd.in/dVrhMkP View in LinkedIn

SWARM NATURE OF INTELLIGENCE. “The cognitive science definition or explication of intelligence is analogous to this explication of multiplication. Intelligent capacities are understood via decomposition into a network of less intelligent capacities, ultimately grounded in totally mechanical capacities executed by primitive processors.” https://lnkd.in/dVrhMkP View in LinkedIn

EXPECT DISAGREEMENT. "There is no such thing as consensus science. If it's consensus, it isn't science. If it's science, it isn't consensus. Period.” https://lnkd.in/dZqxxrU View in LinkedIn

CONSCIOUSNESS HYPOTHESIS. A "highly controversial suggestion by Roger Penrose and Stuart Hameroff that quantum behaviour of protein filaments called microtubules is responsible for the computational capability of the human mind." https://lnkd.in/eJrZRx4 View in LinkedIn

“PENROSE argues that human consciousness is non-algorithmic, and thus is not capable of being modeled by a conventional Turing machine-type of digital computer. Penrose hypothesizes that quantum mechanics plays an essential role in the understanding of human consciousness. The collapse of the quantum wavefunction is seen as playing an important role in brain function.” https://lnkd.in/dSPWCvA View in LinkedIn

BEYOND COMPUTATION. “Penrose hypothesizes that: Human consciousness is non-algorithmic, and thus is not capable of being modelled by a conventional Turing machine-type of digital computer. Quantum mechanics plays an essential role in the understanding of human consciousness, specifically, he believes that microtubules within neurons support quantum superpositions.The objective collapse of the quantum wavefunction of the microtubules is critical for consciousness. The human mind has abilities that no Turing machine could possess because of this mechanism of non-computable physics.” https://lnkd.in/ds6KwVD View in LinkedIn

THE HUMAN FACTOR. “To quote the head of AI at Singularity University, Neil Jacobstein, “It’s not artificial intelligence I’m worried about, it’s human stupidity.” https://lnkd.in/dYnHGgD View in LinkedIn
