How uploading our minds to a computer might become possible

Retrieved on: 
Monday, June 26, 2023

Recent television series such as Black Mirror and Upload, as well as some games, demonstrate our continued fascination with this idea.

Key Points: 
  • Recent television series such as Black Mirror and Upload, as well as some games, demonstrate our continued fascination with this idea.
  • Recent developments in science and technology are taking us closer to a time when mind uploading could graduate from science fiction to reality.
  • Detailed scans of the brain and its activity would allow us to reproduce a person’s biological brain, and potentially mind, in a computer.

Several approaches

    • This would gather the data needed to produce a working copy of a brain.
    • So, how likely is it that whole brain emulation, and potentially mind uploading, will be achieved?
    • Our minds, and particularly consciousness, are often considered something greater and more ephemeral than a function of the biological brain.

Modifying the brain

    • Such developments, along with advances in artificial intelligence (AI), are allowing us to better decipher brain waves.
    • In the future, they may well allow us to “write to” or modify the brain.
    • No one knows for certain how long it might take to emulate the human brain.
