Misericorde said:I'm not stating a fact, just refuting absurd claims made by "futurists". I don't claim to know much, but reverse engineering the BRAIN in 10 years is probably one of the more absurd claims I've heard since 'Indigo Children'. So, I won't claim what I say is fact, but it's closer than 10 years by (I THINK) orders of magnitude. Better?
Yep, better. As I said, I agree w/ you in principle. I disagree w/ the statements in seventhsigma's post, quoting the book, as I'm sure you do. I do not find it believable that even given the application all of the resources currently avaialble to the human race, the human brain could be reverse engineered (a concept that I don't even think makes much sense regarding the brain) in 10 years. 100 years MAYBE. There's just no way we could figure out enough in 10 years to do it. AHAH ... now I'm stating facts that I can't prove. OK, make it ... I'm REALLY, REALLY sure ...
