@GaryMarcus I don't expect immediately... maybe a few months :)

Also, even baby steps now

@peterevoss true agi maybe but we also have a long way to go on the neuroscience, and true AGI doesn’t immediately solve that.

@GaryMarcus Do you not believe true AGI is possible in less than 20 years? And the exponentially acceleration of technological progress thereafter?

Leaving aside what exactly such 'uploading' would actually entail and mean..

Elon Musk says,

Neuralink could capture an approximate snapshot of a person's mind and upload it to an Optimus (robot) body

It's not immediate, but it's possible and probably within 20 years

The statement is part of a discussion on the future of neuroscience and artificial general intelligence (AGI). It references advancements in brain decoding technology, suggesting incremental progress towards complex goals like those envisioned by Wilder Penfield, a pioneering neurosurgeon. The tone is speculative and optimistic about technological advancements.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement does no harm and is part of a constructive dialogue about technological progress. [+1]
  2. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    It promotes understanding by referencing historical figures in neuroscience, potentially fostering interest and discussion. [+1]
  3. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    Engages in constructive dialogue without personal attacks, focusing on technological possibilities. [+1]
