Bump. Opinions required.

How exactly do you make a machine the size of a neuron?

>>34790363
Well, cells are much bigger than a molecule. And we could build a word out of gold molecules. Once the first machine is in, it will continue replicating and replacing, but also being connected to the still living brain. Hormones will be simulated, because of their usually physical effects.

uh.. you do understand replicating neurochemical reactions into an alorithm isnt even possible..

r-right?

Well actually we would just need a way to repair/replace decaying neurons (which we can't do atm) and our current brain is probably able to do the rest and replicate connections in the new parts (as long as they're introduced gradually), resulting in practical immortality.

Brain will probably be the last organ to be replaced (if ever). After all we're still working on better artificial hearts.
