Memory transplantation and Immortality

With the development of science, whether or not memory can be transplanted is the focus of scientists.

Scientists in Japan have performed experiments with brains in vivo. They put thousands of brain nerve cells in a glassware with a culture medium, and stretched neural syncs quickly connect the cells together, in this way, a memory neural network model is formed, which is like a webshell ". A part of the neural cells in the network intermittently emit faint light, and at the same time, they emit and transmit electrical signals along the same line every few seconds. If some electrical stimulation is given to them from outside the glassware, other nerve cells also start to emit light and use it as a new luminous transmission mode. Therefore, scientists believe that memory is actually the "impression" of the optical signal on the neural cell network, and light is the stimulation that the neural network forms in the instant of memory; the process of transmitting signals along a specific route in an interconnected network is the process of human thinking about and recognizing things. This process and current flow on the computer circuit board, the same principle is used to complete complex computing. The countless memories of humans are stored in the form of transmission routes, and the memories correspond to the number of signal transmission routes. In order to avoid forgetting, neural networks have a mechanism for continuous signal transmission to form a ring-row closed area, which can keep the marks and flashes of the signals continuously. Memory is retained for several or dozens of seconds.

Since the human memory process shares the same principle as the computer computing process, scientists hope to achieve memory transplantation through the development of the biochip brain. Experts predict that artificial brain will be available in the 21st century. At that time, we can use a biochip to copy all the memory information stored by a person's brain, and then implant the biochip containing all the information into another person's brain. In this process, biointegrated circuits and biological Computers play an important role.

The key is the possibility that biochips can be connected to the biological brain. If the connection is successful, the memory transplantation is successful. Now scientists have confirmed on animals the possibility of chip-to-brain connection. Spanish scientists have successfully carried out such an experiment with bullfights: planting a small chip in the bull's brain, and then driving it into the bullring. After the bull was angry, he immediately rushed to the scientist dressed as a bullfighter, but the scientist was not afraid. He only pressed the switch in his hand, and the bull immediately stood still. It turns out that the Pulse Input to the chip plays a role in the brain of cattle.

Some scientists further pointed out that the significance of memory transplantation is far from quickly learning and mastering others' or computer knowledge. More importantly, it may play a key role in human immortality. They believe that in the future, the death of mankind will not have the characteristics of the current biological death, the future of human death is based on memory or consciousness. The most effective way to survive is the combination of cloning technology and wafer information copying. That is to say, if a person wants to survive at the end of his/her life, he can first copy his/her clone, and then use the copy Copy function of the biochip, transplant your memories, thoughts, and personalities into the brain of a clone user, so that you can get a new body as you change your clothes, at the same time, keep the original memories, thoughts, and personality characteristics to achieve the goal of immortality. Of course, this involves cloning ethics and legal issues and is a major issue that requires human care.
