\"artificial-intelligence\"<\/a>Have you heard of the ‘Human Brain Project’ ?\u00a0<\/strong>:-<\/p>\n

‘Understanding the human brain is one of the greatest challenges facing 21st century science. If we can rise to the challenge, we can gain profound insights into what makes us human, develop new treatments for brain disease and build revolutionary new computing technologies.<\/span><\/strong> Today, for the first time, modern ICT has brought these goals within sight.’<\/p>\n

‘The HBP<\/a> is working to develop a collaboration infrastructure, which would among other tools include network and cellular simulators, in-silico experimentation facilities, and the opportunity to execute the combination of simulator model and in-silico experiment on a supercomputer or computer cluster. During the project, the tools and the collaboration infrastructure developed by the HBP researchers will be made accessible for the entire neuroscience community. At the seminar, HBP researchers and external neuroscientists will explore the challenges, opportunities and implications of the HBP collaboration infrastructure, and formulate hypotheses, focusing on testing of cognitive tasks like spatial navigation and visual action recognition, that could be tested when the facilities has been developed.’<\/p>\n

These developments once thought fantastical reflect the thoughts of pioneering futurist\u00a0Ray Kurzweil<\/a>\u00a0who has talked about the idea of a ‘singularity’ – a point in time in the near future when the development of artificial intelligence reaches a point beyond which it is almost impossible to predict what will happen as humans combine with intelligent machines to produce a race of ‘super- humans’ capable of extended life with un-imaginable consequences. These ideas are both terrifying & exhilarating.<\/p>\n

Once considered purely Science Fiction the Human Brain Project suggests that this truly disruptive technology may be closer than we think.<\/p>\n
