RE: Using Technology to Counter Existential Threats

There is the connectome project to map the mind, but I don't know if that's the right answer.
I think the correct answer will be found in neural prosthetics or nano tech.
But consider someone who writes a virus say the common cold, to say turn off your cell duplication machinery..
With a backup of your genome it becomes possible to repair the damage.
Difficult, but possible.

Furthermore, with a copy of your own genome you can deep dive and find things you didn't know you had. Such as a genetic disposition to diabetes. If you know this stuff is there you can take proactive measures prevent it.

What the future holds, no one knows for sure. But the future will be interesting for sure.
Here is a very very interesting video.

Yes and that video is saying everything I'm saying.
It's incredible but it scares the crap out of me too :D
When modifying a program, the first thing you should do is take a backup.
If you don't mind I'm going to add that to my posting.

No problem go for it. Not mine to begin with lol but its information that everyone should know. (:

I am not sure if this data is correct, but i remember watching a few scientific videos about the brain and they said that a mind could contain exabytes of information, as the subsonscious is way more advanced than the conscious brain.

I am not sure how accurate that number is but, i dont think it's that easy to save a mind.
