Chapter 385 The journey continues!
However, compared with love chips and focusing on chips, the brain-assisted memory chips currently studied by humans are many times more difficult. They involve key structural memory in the brain!
This idea itself is very good. It is just a little difficult to store memory in a chip and enhance memory... It's just that it's a bit difficult and I've never been able to figure it out.
Professor Luo came on stage and played a holographic image of the human brain on the screen.
He explained: "The reason for developing this technology is that the speed of people's memory information and the time of storage are actually not high. In comparison, it is far inferior to the Badits, who are also smart creatures."
"The quality here refers to the integrity and durability of information. Although the Badits will also forget most of the trivial things, they can easily recall major events that happened two or three thousand years ago, specifically on a certain day or a certain year... such super memories are only possessed by a small number of people in the human population."
"I have to admit that a person's lifelong learning accounts for a considerable portion of his time. In fact, these high learning costs are mainly memory, but there are relatively fewer places to understand."
"If the effect of remembering it can be maintained for a long time, then we can quickly finish reading a book, and the rest is understanding and analysis, as well as absorbing the inner letters of the book. This will save a lot of time for learning. Invisibly, everyone will become smarter and learn more content within their limited lives."
But the difficulty is that memory is stored in the brain in a dispersed manner, and no bus can access all memories.
The chemical changes involved in wanting to write memory directly into neurons are too complicated and are impossible to achieve at present.
So biologists simply want to imitate the brain structure of the Badits and open up another memory area in the brain, which is the effect that memory-assisted chips can play.
"It's too complicated to completely transform the human brain, but adding an area seems to be a little simpler. The Badits have a special memory organ called the auxiliary brain, which has some reference significance for us."
"First of all, there is a technical difficulty. How can we let our human brain identify the data content in the chip? This question is of course the focus of research. With the vigorous development of neurobiological chips and the cracking of memory passwords by humans, there has been a big breakthrough... We have currently had a laboratory prototype."
The professor took out a small chip. As a biochip, it is of course made of biological materials, which is only a little big as a fingernail.
It looks like a piece of fabric with a thickness of millimeters, with a certain degree of flexibility. In fact, it is covered with dense neural network structures, which is a biological storage device.
A large number of reporters exclaimed a little at the chip and were raising their cameras to shoot wildly.
"The second is the limitations of self-awareness..."
From the experiment of the little mouse, it can be found that if one little mouse’s self-awareness is used for no reason to match the memory of another little mouse, the self-awareness will collapse due to incompatibility and then become a vegetative state.
“…that is, self-awareness can only load memories of one’s own.”
"So, according to this principle, if you inject memory into these chips for no reason, people can learn a lot of knowledge without learning, and there is no way to do this..."
The biologist on the stage explained: "Unless we can make a major breakthrough in the level of self-awareness algorithms, or in other words, we have to risk death and obtain a large amount of memories for no reason... There are also very small number of mice in biological laboratories that can carry extra memories. We cannot figure out what the specific rules are."
Zhang Yuan shook his head gently, "This kind of random memory-enhancing behavior is definitely forbidden, and the safety factor is not easy to control. There are still many secrets in the human brain that have not yet been cracked..."
But then again, from the brain itself, input memory into a blank chip and then read the memory, there will be no problem.
"In this way, after installing this chip, it is equivalent to being closed with the external environment and only interacting with the human brain. After loading this chip, everyone's memory ability can be greatly enhanced. We have not yet experimented with how much it enhances."
Memory ability itself is a reflection of IQ.
And on the other hand, if this memory chip technology really appears, the return of "Extraordinary" will be no problem.
In the early stage of fetal brain development, usually 1-2 weeks after conception, when self-consciousness has not yet been formed, the memory chip is connected to the newborn brain and then introduced into self-consciousness. The "Extraordinary" can return to the real world.
Of course, everything is only in the initial stage... the subsequent work requires the efforts of all scientific researchers.
After the biologist introduced all the progress, a large number of reporters began to ask questions in a noisy way, such as the current progress of R&D and safety issues. If this thing suddenly breaks in the head, will the person die directly? Or lose a large part of his memory?
If this kind of security problem really happens, it’s completely unacceptable!
"Professor Luo, and that's right, will this type of chip be cracked by hackers? Oh, by the way... it is not a traditional silicon-based chip, but a neural network chip. Can you introduce the specific principles?"
Professor Luo was made by a large number of reporters and didn’t know what to say. The specific principle? He was completely a layman with this group of reporters. What should I introduce? If I really want to introduce it in detail, it may take several months or even years!
As for the security issue, what is the initial stage? It is precisely because these problems have not been completely solved that they are called the initial stage.
There is even a group of Riley people living in a certain part of Kunlun Mountain. Their brain structure has certain commonalities with humans. Since they have got rid of the original slave life and lived a happy and fulfilling life in the virtual world, at the cost, they can only contribute their own bodies to do experiments.
But these messy dark side must not be expressed.
Professor Luo thought for a long time and could only explain it in very simple language. However, the reporters were not satisfied and had to set a date, when would it be completed, etc. They were really too concerned about this.
"It is absolutely impossible to set the next time... we have no specific confidence, so we should strive to make greater progress within fifty years... Maybe it may be even a hundred years."
Finally, after the noisy questioning session, Zhang Yuan came to the stage and posted another summary: "Since there are not much technological progress made at present, and it is unsafe to send electromagnetic waves near the cosmic strings, it will take more than a hundred years to send a spacecraft back, which is very unprofitable. Therefore, I will not communicate with the base camp in the rear for the time being."
"Ladies, what do you think? The Kunlun Mountain Fleet has been starting from Glitze 581 for a hundred years. In this century, we have gradually become accustomed to life in the spacecraft and come into contact with two alien civilizations, one is very powerful and the other is very weak.
"The unknown tomorrow is full of trepidation, but full of expectations."
"Who knows what we will encounter in the future? It is precisely because of this unknown that we are whipping us and constantly heading far away."
"I hope we can not forget our original aspirations, continue to work hard, and create the glory of our human beings in this starry sky!"
Slap!
There was a thunderous applause below.
