Heads in the cloud: Scientists predict internet of thoughts ‘within decades’

Nanowerk  April 12, 2019
An international team of researchers (USA – Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, UC Berkeley, industries, UC San Diego, University of Miami, Duke University, Purdue University, Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, Bethesda, Canada, Russia, Australia) predicts that exponential progress in nanotechnology, nanomedicine, AI, and computation will lead this century to the development of a “Human Brain/Cloud Interface” (B/CI), that connects neurons and synapses in the brain to vast cloud-computing networks in real time. According to the researchers the B/CI system mediated by neuralnanorobotics could empower individuals with instantaneous access to all cumulative human knowledge available in the cloud, while significantly improving human learning capacities and intelligence and create a future “global superbrain” that would connect networks of individual human brains and AIs to enable collective thought. An experimental human ‘BrainNet’ system has already been tested, enabling thought-driven information exchange via the cloud between individual brains…read more. Open Access TECHNICAL ARTICLE
