I've been working on this theory for a while and i think its solid.


so i figure that if ur under 40 you'll probably live forever. well, maybe not live, but defiantly reside on some sort of digital media. able to interact, socialize, think, explore literally hundreds of thousands of times faster than our current physical constraints allow us to.

Since 1930 we have basically invented the world as we know it. with the advances in medicine alone we have drastically lengthened the expected lifespan of a human, as well as greatly improved their way of life. This will all be a thing of the past, very soon.

Taking into account the huge leaps we have recently made in the field of human-computer interconnectivity (brain connectivity) (i.e. Brain Machine Interfaces ) and Moore's Law ( Moore's Law, The Future - Technology & Research at Intel ) we can show that all our thoughts are just electrical signals, the "same" electric signals a computer uses. What's stopping us from storing or more accuratly "make digital" these thoughts, experiences, and eventually personalties that make us who we are.

In my opinion, this is the holy grail, the key to invincibility, the answer to all our questions and the resolution to all our problems. global warming isn't a problem if u dont need to have an atmosphere, we're guaranteed to find life on other planets... this is just the small stuff. it will be amazing when our brain doesn't physically limit our abilities to think and create and our bodies limit where we can go and what we can do. What im saying is, it took us 70 years to build the technology we have today. when u consider we're all like 20ish, whats another 70 years. thats assuming we dont blow ourselves up first... we've come pretty close a few times over the last 70 years.

and theres the age old question. will man's self destructive tendencies get the best of him? I hope not. I truly believe in what i'm writing. I am a devout atheist and i find great comfort knowing that maybe there is a chance of living forever.

if ur interested, there was a show on nova or one of the wgbh-hd (PBS) science shows that touched on the idea. defiantly worth watching.

How do u feel?
