Brain downloads 'possible by 2050
 

London, England -- By the middle of the 21st century it will be possible to download your brain to a supercomputer, according to a leading thinker on the future.

Ian Pearson, head of British Telecom's futurology unit, told the UK's Observer newspaper that the rapid advances in computing power would make cyber-immortality a reality within 50 years.

Pearson said the launch last week of Sony's PlayStation 3, a machine 35 times more powerful than the model it replaced, was a sign of things to come.

im going into the matrix :D


By 2020 Pearson also predicted the creation of a "virtual world" of immersive computer-generated environments in which we will spend increasing amounts of time, socializing and doing business.

He said: "When technology gives you a life-size 3D image and the links to your nervous system allow you to shake hands, it's like being in the other person's office. It's impossible to believe that won't be the normal way of communicating."

That article is so retarded :retard:

This Ian Pearson really needs to stop watching Star Wars and cut down on the Playstation and move out of his parents basement.

I don't even know where to start poking holes in his retarded prediction.

lol this is hardly a retarded prediction, i wont be surprised if this happens sooner then 50 yrs... u obviously have NO CLUE how fast is goin

i dunno if this was in the article or noT (didnt read it) but the new ps3 is spose to be 1/100 the intelligence of the human brain. 15yrs ago u played games in 2d, and look how far we have come with that, i cant see why this is so unbelievable

It's a retarded prediction because it's based on absolutely no fact, except what everybody can plainly see - that technology is advancing incredibly fast.

Personally I think it's a joke that it's even an article.

"NEWSFLASH, SOME GUY THINKS COMPUTERS WILL BE MUCH MORE POWERFUL IN 2050 THAN THEY ARE NOW."

Anyone could've told you that.

ya anyone could have told u that, but thats not wat that article said, it tried to explain somthing, not simply say they are going to be more powerful... it was a nice attempt to sound clever... :eyes: but of course u know everything about that right? i mean graphics in a few years will be completely lifelike and will be goin way faster then we will ever imagine it to go... so i guess it just stops there? wat about the next 40 years

pretty much EVERYTHING that is "high tech" now was once thought to be impossible....TV, space travel, video games, etc. u think this point in time is any different? :eyes: please

its ignorant of ppl to think we alrdy know everything
