Workshop on Advancing Substrate Independent Minds Held in Teleplace
Abstract:
A brief summary of excerpts from the June 5, 2010 online workshop "Advancing Substrate Independent Minds (ASIM-2010-1)". ASIM is driven by a community with an objective-oriented and action-oriented approach that is aimed at the development of technological means by which to achieve the transfer of cognitive processes from a human brain to an artificial substrate.
A convergence of nanotechnology, biotechnology, brain imaging, etc. promises to accelerate cutting edge developments towards processes such as whole brain emulation, mind transfer, digital personalities, gradual neuroprosthetic replacement and brain preservation.
