In just over 30 years, humans will be able to upload their entire minds to computers

I did see some tv program that I do not remember all details but some parts of it that is similar to this.. When people die (those that have a "little" extra money and have opted for this) they take the brain and slice it very thin and cut it up into smaller pieces after that. After that process they are then able to record all the info onto a hard drive, and something was said about they would eventually be able to bring the person back to life inside a computer i don't remember everything they were saying about it thought.

Exactly the basis for police forensics in Greg Bear's 1990 award-winning sci-fi novel, Queen of Angels.

Lots of sci-fi gets recycled to futurist shows, not surprised.
Another interesting thing i saw on the same show was that experts estimate that in two days time we create more data then from the beginning of time up until 2003, with the recent growth of social medias
The information doubling may be true, they've been tracking the doubling rate since the 60s.

It was like 8 degrees today!

Oh my God I can't feel my legs!
 
In his book, The Dragons of Eden, Carl Sagan referred to this as extrasomatic memory or knowledge.

Books are an example. Huge impact on life as we know it.

Hmmm... you know this reminds me of something hey.

Have you guys heard of the best book ever?

It was written by the smartest guy known to man by ten thousand times.

He realised that humanity is really freaking stupid and in his book he talks about how the roaches will enslave (but mostly destroy) all of humanity and take over the world.

But because the truth hurts and people (scumz buckets) don't want to hear the truth nobody wanted to buy the book!

So unfortunately this guy become homeless even though the book is a master piece!

It is a true master piece! :)

Sadly over time... this absolutely brilliant genius that none can come close to.... he started to lose it... and he cut off his own ear!

A lot like this guy here:

Hmmmm you know what I think... maybe 10 000 years down the line when the roaches have enslaved us all... then and only then will people realise how much of genius he really was! :)

People should start listening to this genius!

The author's name is just simply:

S.S.

hmmm... very very cool if I do say so myself!
 
I think the books title is:

"The TRUE Revelations"

.... hmmm I must get this book!
 
It will be interesting to see the different lengths of time it takes to upload the different brains of certain people.:eek:;)
That may be the new insult that bullies use.
"It only took 3.7 seconds to upload your entire brain.":p
 
and what would happen to collective conscience..or unified field? sounds too frankensteins monster to me...I'll pass thank you very much....unlessssssss
hmmmm:rolleyes:
 
The only thing I need to know is when do we get to this point if we do not destroy each other first?


Because I want to know for 5 gazzillion percent certainty that I will win the lotto and enslave the human race with my cash from winning every 5 seconds!

Shang Tsung from Mortal Kombat says: Your soul is mine!

Literally! :)
 
I'd upload with 2G or Edge. I can shove my SIM in and old phone and see if it goes.
That is, if I even bothered.

I don't care about immortality. Dust to ashes and they'd have to test each grain for DNA to see if it's you.
