Thing is, while i wouldnt care to much if my heart or my lung failed - we allready have machines to replace those - its my brain thats getting damaged due to my multiple sclerosis. Probably wont be in the best condition once it can be scanned and uploaded
Not in our lifetimes
I would program myself a NAWALT
😄
Oh i wouldve thought uploading my brain would be possible in my lifetime.
Doubt that
Would be surprised if that wasnt possible in my lifetime
No way maybe 200 years
my lifetime being maybe another 30 years at least.
probably 50
id predict it before 2050
We can allready simulate at least portions of a brain, we did in fact do that. Took years to simulate a second, but that doesnt matter to the scan existing.
BUT
it would need a new kind of harddrive to save it
because our brain doesn't work binary
scanning isn't the hardpart, it's the storage
exaaactly
@Mysteriedingens you cant only describe binary states with binary
even a byte isnt binary anymore.
Maybe Quantum Computing will change the possibilities
You can simulate a brain with conventional computing
5d optical storage shows promise, but not enough people/orgs are working with it.
False, a bit can only represent two states
a bit can describe two states
a byte is made up of 8 bits and can describe 256 states
because of the combination of states the bits can have
right
its just another representation of a quantity of bits, it still breaks down to bits
and?
gravity is also not binary and can be simulated by computers quite easily
you don't recreate gravity, just a simulation of it
qubits however can be both 0 and 1 at the same time
you can achieve the same by simply combining 2 bits...
100million times slower
Yeah maybe slower, but for mere storage its more than good enough
it takes a few megabytes and few seconds to save a picture, what do you think concsciousness has in terms of file format
for write only storage it's fine, but for read/write, that's terrible.
Again, i just said saving my conciousness, not actualy activating it should be possible within my lifetime
There is the discussion, as soon as you save your consciousness, you are not you anymore. Data storage has package loss, so you mutate your consciousness
As if you are actually saving your consciousness you only clone yourself
