Transhuman Scientists download brain onto computer making humans immortal

The precipice should not be visited so light heatedly...

If we were to assume that there would be no one to catch our fall... then I think it would not be engaged so readily...

But if we further speculate... wouldn't the creators have countermeasures for such assumptions?

The soul is attached to the body, and when the body dies it moves on. The actual personality will not inhabit a machine, so this would not be considered life. It is only a stride in artificial intelligence by borrowing intelligence from someone else. It may be a good idea to record memory in such a way as it could have many uses, but a computer can never become truly self-aware, humans will always possess a superior form of will.

The act of changing the hardware of conciousness changes the conciousness itself.

Yes... well let's hope the Creators have evolved to a point that total inhalation is not the only answer to teach the children...

Currently.. the masses are told that the human brain is the only computer that can do such a thing...

I believe it to be more correct to say... the human brain is the only computing device that we know off to do such a thing...

Generally speaking of course...

Our physical bodies are meant to be finite. Tinker with machines all you like, it is not immoral to do so, but the soul will still depart when it needs to. Anyone who experiences what it's like beyond the veil would never want to artificially extend their natural life. Even if we lived in a utopian society, the higher dimensions are still better.

Except that even science is now discovering that consciousness does not reside solely in the brain - it is encoded in our DNA.

The Higher dimensions are believed to be better.. as far as quality of existing.

But without an area of strife...learning is limited...

and I know of no better teacher than experience.

The military is most certainly NOT 40 years ahead on technology.

40 years ahead on missles? Maybe. Probably not, but maybe.

40 years ahead on artificial intelligence? No way.

The military is sometimes a few years ahead on product-izing some advanced technology.

Anyone who has worked on advanced military technology would agree.

"The soul is attached to the body, and when the body dies it moves on. The actual personality ? >SOUL? will not inhabit a machine."

Ah Yes, knowledge and wisdom, we are all capable of acquiring, some of us much more than others.

Can anyone truly answer this?

Can a soul manifest itself thru reincarnation into a supercomputer?


HAL, Where are you, HAL !!! Please speak to me! HAL!!!

I agree with that, however there is also a limit on the number of different experiences one can have during this life. Extending life won't change this, except for adding the new experience of living longer than previously possible. But I doubt that actually leads to soul growth if it doesn't help you become more spiritual. To me, extending the life seems to create limitations because it only stalls what new things you will experience after the body dies. I view it as a form of procrastination. Unless there is some task to be accomplished in this life that requires me to live longer, living longer than 80-90 years serves no point. Not everyone will do marvelous things during retirement.

Yes... it is my guess that "losing Information" is just an illusion itself.

More than likely... the curtains have been pulled over our eyes for us to experience a time of learning.

Of course... conjecture of such can't be proven at this point... but... what we can focus on here is the DNA....

The junk part of DNA... as has been called... is not junk.. but an advanced storage of information... that hasn't been decoded yet(by current science)... or that's what we are told...

I have noticed that once the masses are told... lets say of the possibility of storing a life time of memories and then transferring them...

Well... the reason they can tell you all about it... is because it has already been done...

No it is not but sounds good for the new wave of DNA obsessed geneticists. Consciousness is not something that can be encoded. But you are free to believe the lies.

This is entirely true, I know some people in Venice Italy engaged in this among other locales in Europe and America. It's fascinating and scary but hugely funded by very affluent private individuals paying the most accomplished in the field to manifest miracles....

yes yes those old romans hoping for eternal perversities and orgies.

Consciousness is in the Body organs too. Its why the Egyptians had special jars for all the organs. People that recieve organ transplants often acquire personality changes of those of the donor.

Once computers are self sufficient, They will become self aware. Until then we are creating RND(NUM) And RND(VAR) generators. We could even create dialogue by synctatic linking but.....self awareness is only created through perturbation of the I.

In material reality without definition of I there is no IS.

Yes... but that is your opinion. If left up to the individual, then I could say quite confidently that there would be many who would choose a longer life.

IMO.. death serves a purpose. A reset if you will.

I find it probable that is previous life expediences were accessible to us in this life time... that it would be a distraction to most... given that guilt of past mistakes could possibly overcome some individuals. I say this because so very few are able to overcome guilt and are imprisoned by it... and on the other side of the coin...t hose who should have it... do not.

Perhaps those who see it this way would choose a shorter life... but again having the choice... is something that is further away that the technology itself..

Hypocritical much?

Due to the conductivity of membranes. Everything in you is generated in a frequency as you.

Yes... which brings us here.. IF...the Universe exists because there is an "I" or an Observer to create it... then what do we think would happen once all the Natural Souls have departed and only trans-humans exist?

Lol... that should twist your noodle

an imprint pattern affected by consciousness sure but the source of it is not in the body or any part of the body for that matter... and just because egyptians did what they did does not make it of the body, as a matter of fact a body is just a vehicle to be discarded in time... you should know that considering your illum studies.

lol... perhaps the Junk DNA IS the actual containment systems for the vessel... and advanced coupling mechanism or interface between body and soul...

And our memories are stored in our DNA.

So many people think they are experiencing past life memories when actually, they are tapping into their genetic memories, passed down by their ancestors. That is not to say that past life memories aren't real, only that we often confuse the two.

We will create death. As hard drives crystalize thoughtform, so do brains. The brain weaves pictures with attributes of tonal and biochemical associative queues to create purpose, likes, dislikes and the such; essentially inherent bias.

This brain will create the electrochemical signature of death as well.

Where conciousness exists, it will be permeated by the natural laws. They may be twisted, but they will infuse the machine to some extent.

WE ARE BATTERIES , in a sense the positive state is when you are awake,you are absorbing in the awakend state. in the awakend state you are in a 3d holographic prison. when you are asleep you are in a negative state and are projecting , this is when the cell door opens up and you are free, if you are to positve you become too acidic, and the body feeds upon itself, if you are too negative you will go insane. stay circled and fear free, and most important thank the ones who care about you you cant see them in the awakend state. but they are there.

But isn't this assuming that we have to have a purpose?

Many are quite content to live out life and enjoy basic pleasures with out having to have an end payoff...

It other words... experiencing the journey is quite sufficient rather than having a destination.

Poor Roy, But he learned in the end that time is indeed a quality and not the quantity ascribed by solar extraterrestrialists.
