Part 1 – Mankinds Greatest Achievement (Revised)

NOTE: With my recent discoveries this needs yet more revisions (all "theory" strengthening issues), but you should notice why if you read my recent blogs in this series. I'll revise again when finish some other important blogs...

NOTE: My first write-up of this was real messy, I found some more info, and have soem new developments so I decided to revise this article.

Mankinds greatest achievement, that you probably didn’t know about. Here I will present lab grown brain technology, it’s future, and what it means to the world.

What do you consider to be the greatest achievement any living thing could perform?  Many things come to mind, and here’s the order I would place some of them: automobile, airplane, nuclear bombs, computers, cloning, create new brain-forms, light speed travel/time travel (they basically go hand in hand). Notice the order? Besides light speed, my list is in the order that the technologies have developed, which is now proven.

Since we have not yet achieved time travel, it’s pretty safe to say that, that would be a greater achievement than creating a new brain-form. Since that has not likely been done, it’s my belief that the greatest thing anything could do, would certainly be to create an entirely new brain form. For any creature’s brain to develop to such genius that it could recreate, exactly what allows the creation to exist. Well we did it.

While this was certainly “reported” by “credible”  news sources, it was not made a public known thing, as every other great achievement is hyped up. Further, it has not been publicly theorized as to what it means to the world.

All over a year old, the last time the technology was reported. They all ran the same article, and that’s it. No fancy website, no magazine articles, at least not that I've found. I read an huge section about 2004’s greatest achievements, and it didn’t even make the list. I’ve read top brain information/history sites, by professors at universities, and they don’t have it on the list. Those same people don’t respond to my emails asking serious questions about the potential of my theory.
 

We’re talking about an entire new brain-form, not of ANY “god” = unholy. Not only is it unholy, but it is also created from beast brains:

beast

     n 1: a living organism characterized by voluntary movement [syn:animal, animate being, brute, creature, fauna]

     2: a cruelly rapacious person [syn: wolf, savage, brute, wildcat]

For the second series brain, they used rat brain neurons, but what will happen after they try some other sources? How could they possibly resist experimenting with other creatures? There may be little difference between mammal brains neurons, but there must be with other creatures, such as sharks. What happens when you mix these cells? Do they already know, is the real question. Further, there are always human brain cells to experiment with; I wonder if the EPA’s new guideline would allow them to extract brain cells from the handicapped orphans? Maybe that’s an issue that brought the law change to begin with?

Then what about the lifespan of just one of these? From the available data, that thing is a living thing (NOT organism), created in a controlled environment, that functions without any organs. Theoretically, if properly handled, it would never be exposed to anything that could infect it or "get it sick". They say there will soon be nano-tech bots that can live inside us and repair/heal us as needed. If so those would certainly be in it as well. How long could something like that live on for, when it wouldn’t even face the odds/pains/sicknesses/etc/etc that humans endure throughout their lives?

So now it seems likely that the government is going to build these into "CPU's", and build vast networks of them. I feel that the government’s acquisition of Google, with the goal of developing "bio-info-nano convergence", makes it quite obvious that they intend to create these brain processors to hook into the Internet.

The best argument, against this technology as being a threat, is that it’s just another form of CPU. It is in its most basic sense, but it’s far beyond silicon microchips. It has already demonstrated learning abilities, which CPU’s certainly cannot do on their own. That would make it obvious that silicon CPU limitations are out the window.

Someone did put up one good argument about my theory that it (they really) would become god like, and learn about evil, and become evil) in this area that it'd be observing all of the various discussion about everything, and would be too mixed up mixed up to know the difference between good and bad.

For starters it would be beyond AI, as its organic, and has already shown the ability to learn, which silicon CPU's cannot do on their own. Then there will be AI added to it, along with all of the other electronics hardware and nanotech devices to push its capabilities to the limit-exponentially. Current "primitive" government computers can already scan through voice and text transmissions, and decide which ones are good/bad. By the time these brains networks are established, those AI capabilities will get better, and would be physically configured into the system. People have always been afraid of AI one day, learning to learn.

Since silicon cant learn, this has to be programmed. Now we have "CPU's" which can learn, even only being the 1st/2nd series. Right now there tons of individuals and firms, that are making the realities of software AI's ability to learn more and more possible. Certainly the scientists would utilize certain elements of software AI, that they’d see fit, and even experiment with others just for the hell of it. So not only can the experimental grade brains learn, but also there will certainly be AI embedded into it, further it would also intercept any AI software being transmitted over the internet. Many software giants function over WAN's, and must transmit over the WAN's, but also over their LAN's, which would also be connected to the Internet.

Since we know the small brains can learn, then surely the large ones will too, but even better. The thing about brain neurons is each one makes parallel connections with all of the other neurons in its reach, thereby forming a 3D grid structure, of multi-parallel connections. It seems to me that brain power would be determined by the brain size, not because there are just more usable cells, but because its a far vaster multi-parallel array structure with more possible paths, for more "connections".

While our brains are a unit of different parts for different things, its likely these brains would be manipulated during creation to add similar parts, but this doesn’t mean they’d add full sections comparable to a human brain. It will have a vast array of state-of-the-art parts/systems/technologies, that cant even, be realized just yet. 

Unless this news is old news in reality, it will take them some time to build brains the size of echelon domes, and even more usable technologies will emerge during that time. Then these brains will be in vast networks, with clusters of strands of fiber optic connections and all that, forming yet more parallel connections.

They will certainly have electronic RAM and permanent storage resources, and will likely have their own storage; if not they could possibly mutate it in (being a huge blob); but could we really make ROM safe guards that this thing couldn’t eventually overcome? Further we now have organic “circuitry” emerging:

NSF Centers Will Use Nano-Interface Control and Bioengineering for Materials by Design

Now we've determined some of the elements and capabilities of this system. There have been some decent arguments (in all of my online debates), that a blob of these cells wouldn’t have a consciousness, mainly because of the lack of the array of parts like a human brain has. That comforting, but don’t forget it will have software AI given to it, and will pick up on more. Further it will also have extra systems, giving it even more powers, system even I don’t fully comprehend just yet.

Its already going to understand how to pick good from bad when doing "Homeland Security" work, all its going to have to do is learn enough to start catching on, similar to how that 2nd series brain was able to catch on to the right way to fly. The "brain" power of just one of these things could be several thousands of times greater than a human brain, and then they will be multi-parallel connected to one another, collectively processing and storing insane amounts of data and communications. Then there would certainly be malicious Internet hackers that would intentionally try to upload bits of AI, to try and corrupt or take it over, which would throw a constant spin of things.

Considering these facts and possibilities, its not very smart to deduce that all into thinking it wouldn’t know how to tell the difference between good and bad, its when it starts deciding what’s right or wrong in its' "mind'", there’s going to be problems.

Having it learning how to behave from humans is another disaster course. Think of all of the crap people say/do, nuff said. Then there’s the smart-complex, that majority of todays humans (even the dumb ones when they can) do on a daily basis; what I’m talking about is how the dumb guy gets treated by the smarter guys, nuff said. How do you think this thing would look at us(after inevitably getting wise)? Much of that behavior is spawned from the competitive spirit we are indoctrinated with in AmericA. I’m not quite knocking competitivness here, pointing out, that it is the spirit of AmericA. This network will be AmericAn, but I'm sure the foreign powers will try to copy it as well (more proliferation anyone?).  

I’m sure there are certain individuals who might be able to clarify certain aspects, and/or present those certain aspects as insignificant, but I know there isn't a considerable enough amount of listed aspects to weaken my claims much. Then there are the things that I didn’t list.

The conclusion will come at the end of this multipart series.

NOTE: Over the past week I’ve shifted my outreach to respected scientists in the AI and neuro science fields. I’m trying to get some expert opinions on this entire matter, to boost or even dissolve it. I have yet to get a response (you'd think they'd enjoy debunking this one?), here are my questions I’ve been asking them:

1. Had you, or your people, ever heard of this brain technology before now? if so, why isn't it on your list?

2. Do you have any major arguments against my theory, that I should know about? 

3. Do you think that is mankinds greatest achievement?

4. Do you think they could really turn these into major "CPU's"? 

5. If so, do you think they could grow them in enormous sizes? 

6. Either way, does the brain "power" expand exponentially as you increase the size? I'm unclear as to whether the power gain would be determined by:
A. "Sum", of the total # of neurons. The neurons themselves determining the overall "power".
B. "Product" , based on the total number of "multi-parallel" connections between the neurons.
C. A B
D. I'm way off?

7. If my observations are correct, does this concern you?

Expect a follow-up, regardless of the content of the responses I get…
