But then the question arises, when does an organic computer stop being a machine and becomes a living entity? it is made up of cells and that is all our brain really is!

I don’t think you know what infinite means.

We may use only 10% of our brain, but not just for thinking, for seeing, feeling, tasting, smelling, and doing subconcious things like breathing and keeping your heart going. Not to mention all the cells it controls in the healing process. I’m not even going to touch the ability to learn and adapt and change or grow. I believe that if someone could write a program to systematically and efficiently utilize an organic computer then the power and speed of it could be endless. And what we could learn about the human brain in doing so, possibly even unlock the rest of our brain capacity within 25 years, cure disease with a few cells, even escape the need for a conventional body. Radical thinker? Maybe. But it all starts with harnessing the power.

good article!….i actually was google searching this out of curiosity. after watching a tv program about cpu’s made out of virus’s!on the science channel.also,i was reading an article about silvia browne 3yrs ago predicting that most household would obtain an AI or i robot in 20yrs…reading this this article would have me convinced..
isn’t it said that we only use 10% of our brain power!!

Not only the fact that there are people that can do complex math “with out any conscious effort” but the human brain does do multiple calculations at once with vision taking up about half the processing capabilities.

Reply to G Bell…. There are many people who have been able to do math problems with out any conscious effort. Most of our calculation is automatic. Like the

Interesting article but have to disagree with the notion that a human brain has more “computing power” than a modern day computer processor. In fact the brain cannot handle highly complex problems simultaneously - imagine calculating the square root of two ten digit numbers then at the same time solving other complex problems of an entirely different nature. IT can’t be done! But I do agree that the potential is there, only on the conscious level it is not. So realistically, adaptation of technology to mimick the responses of a neural network such as the human brain would have to encompass the fact that the brain is very inefficient and therefore is not a good model, sadly.

this was a very interesting peice of information to read. Although the though of AI still scares me but it would pretty nice to have a computer already check your emial and everything for you in the morning. even better if it made coffie.
heres a question though, Do you think the day will ever come where human brains are fully mechanical? like a computer but just not organic like a real brain.

very interesting article…I’m interested in AI, always have been, hopefully the practical usage of organic computers will be the next step soon.
