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

CARBONCOPIES, INC. "A San Francisco inventor has revealed plans for a system to upload his brain to a computer. He hopes to be able to replicate the human brain as a mechanical system. By mapping the brain, reducing its activity to computations, and reproducing those computations in code, Koene argued, humans could live indefinitely, emulated by silicon."When I say emulation, you should think of it, for example, in the same sense as emulating a Macintosh on a PC," a platform-independent code.” (2014). https://lnkd.in/d3gNJBJ View in LinkedIn

MIND UPLOADING. "Among some futurists and within the transhumanist movement, mind uploading is treated as an important proposed life extension technology. Some believe mind uploading is our current best option for preserving who we are as opposed to cryonics. Another aim of mind uploading is to provide a permanent backup to our "mind-file", and a means for functional copies of human minds to survive a global disaster or interstellar space travels." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind_uploading View in LinkedIn

BEATING MOORE'S LAW. "In Silicon Valley, Moore's law seems to stand on equal footing with the natural laws codified by Isaac Newton. Intel co-founder Gordon Moore's iconic observation that computing power tends to double — and that its price therefore halves — every 2 years has held true for nearly 50 years with only minor revision." https://lnkd.in/dGcvNvY View in LinkedIn

5,000 TIMES REDUCTION. Going from projected "several centuries" to "several weeks" of analytic time in the human Connectome Project is completely analogous to the Human Genome Project, where time and cost to sequence DNA plummeted as technology advanced. It also underscores the absolute unreliability of technology forecasts.” http://www.popsci.com/article/science/neuroscientist-who-wants-upload-humanity-computer View in LinkedIn

HERMAPHRODITES. “By contrast, hermaphroditism is rare among animals considered as a whole (about 5% of all species), which is largely due to the absence of hermaphrodites in the species-rich insects, but it is common in many other animal taxa, including fish and many invertebrates (most snails, corals, trematodes, barnacles, and many echinoderms).” http://journals.plos.org/plosbiology/article?id=10.1371/journal.pbio.1001899 View in LinkedIn
