描述
This book addresses the connections between computers, life, evolution, brains, and minds. Digital computers are recent and have changed our society. However, they represent just the latest way to process information, using algorithms to create order out of chaos. Before computers, the job of processing information was done by living organisms, which are nothing more than complex information processing devices, shaped by billions of years of evolution. The most advanced of these information processing devices is the human brain. Brains enable humans to process information in a way unparalleled by any other species, living or extinct, or by any existing machine. They provide humans with intelligence, consciousness and, some believe, even with a soul. Brains also enabled humans to develop science and technology to a point where it is possible to design computers with a power comparable to that of the human brain. Machine learning and artificial intelligence technologies will one day make it possible to create intelligent machines and computational biology will one day enable us to model, simulate, and understand biological systems and even complete brains, with unprecedented levels of detail. From these efforts, new minds will eventually emerge, minds that will emanate from the execution of programs running in powerful computers. These digital minds may one day rival our own, become our partners, and replace humans in many tasks. They may usher in a technological singularity, may make humans obsolete or even a threatened species. They make us super-humans or demi-gods.

What Do Computers, Cells, And Brains Have In Common? Computers Are Electronic Devices Designed By Humans; Cells Are Biological Entities Crafted By Evolution; Brains Are The Containers And Creators Of Our Minds. But All Are, In One Way Or Another, Information-processing Devices. The Power Of The Human Brain Is, So Far, Unequaled By Any Existing Machine Or Known Living Being. Over Eons Of Evolution, The Brain Has Enabled Us To Develop Tools And Technology To Make Our Lives Easier. Our Brains Have Even Allowed Us To Develop Computers That Are Almost As Powerful As The Human Brain Itself. In This Book, Arlindo Oliveira Describes How Advances In Science And Technology Could Enable Us To Create Digital Minds. Exponential Growth Is A Pattern Built Deep Into The Scheme Of Life, But Technological Change Now Promises To Outstrip Even Evolutionary Change. Oliveira Describes Technological And Scientific Advances That Range From The Discovery Of Laws That Control The Behavior Of The Electromagnetic Fields To The Development Of Computers. He Calls Natural Selection The Ultimate Algorithm, Discusses Genetics And The Evolution Of The Central Nervous System, And Describes The Role That Computer Imaging Has Played In Understanding And Modeling The Brain. Having Considered The Behavior Of The Unique System That Creates A Mind, He Turns To An Unavoidable Question: Is The Human Brain The Only System That Can Host A Mind?

How developments in science and technology may enable the emergence of purely digital minds—intelligent machines equal to or greater in power than the human brain.What do computers, cells, and brains have in common? Computers are electronic devices designed by humans; cells are biological entities crafted by evolution; brains are the containers and creators of our minds. But all are, in one way or another, information-processing devices. The power of the human brain is, so far, unequaled by any existing machine or known living being. Over eons of evolution, the brain has enabled us to develop tools and technology to make our lives easier. Our brains have even allowed us to develop computers that are almost as powerful as the human brain itself. In this book, Arlindo Oliveira describes how advances in science and technology could enable us to create digital minds. Exponential growth is a pattern built deep into the scheme of life, but technological change now promises to outstrip even evolutionary change. Oliveira describes technological and scientific advances that range from the discovery of laws that control the behavior of the electromagnetic fields to the development of computers. He calls natural selection the ultimate algorithm, discusses genetics and the evolution of the central nervous system, and describes the role that computer imaging has played in understanding and modeling the brain. Having considered the behavior of the unique system that creates a mind, he turns to an unavoidable question: Is the human brain the only system that can host a mind? If digital minds come into existence—and, Oliveira says, it is difficult to argue that they will not—what are the social, legal, and ethical implications? Will digital minds be our partners, or our rivals?
