2045 Initiative

The "2045" Initiative was founded by Dmitry Itskov in February 2011 in partnership with leading Russian scientists.

The main objectives of the Initiative are: the creation of a new vision of human development that meets global challenges humanity faces today, realization of the possibility of a radical extension of human life by means of cybernetic technology, as well as the formation of a new culture associated with these technologies.

The "2045" team is working towards creating an international research center where leading scientists will be engaged in research and development in the fields of anthropomorphic robotics, living systems modeling and brain and consciousness modeling with the goal of transferring one’s individual consciousness to an artificial carrier and achieving cybernetic immortality.

An annual congress "The Global Future 2045" is organized by the Initiative to give platform for discussing mankind's evolutionary strategy based on technologies of cybernetic immortality as well as the possible impact of such technologies on global society, politics and economies of the future.

interesting stuff right here friends



who is interested in "evolving" in this new millennium into irobot form?

This is like that movie Surrogates with Bruce Willis.

i'm 23. if i were told now that i'm going to die in the near future, i would definitely like to transfer my consciousness to another body.

if i was elderly, maybe i'd think differently. hard to tell, since i'm not elderly.

nah,
for what? I could stay down here surfing the web until infinity or I could go kick it what the man upstairs.

Simple choice really.

Plus if vampire movies have taught us anything it's that immortality is overrated here on earth.

Only thing you'd be kicking is buckets, my friend.

Yeah, I'd do it. Would have to make sure it works first though, I don't want it to be something like a failed lobotomy.

 

[jackswstd]

Sure,why not

Like any of us would be able to afford that shyt

Good question.

I would transfer my human consciousness ONLY IF I CAN BE A PLASMA GAS OR RADIATION BASED GOD PARTICLE organism. Earth is carbon and silicon based life and too limited for the bigger universe.

I would rather be free to travel the larger universe in many forms. This Higgs Boson particle s**t has my whole outlook on afterlife completely changed, real talk no tin foil.

Gas based intelligent life means no decay, or aging, only energy transfer from one form to another, no dependence on fossil fuels, or metabolism.

Real Talk no tin foil bulls**t.

cant you vision the amount of people on death beds they are gonna use as test subjects (sign here if you want to be an organ doaner after you die sort of thing) and or free labor participants once this actually comes together though? my oh my the slave game will reach new levels if it works out that way

well when you put it like that being the equivalent of a solar fart seems to be the way to go

The technological singularity and trans-humanism is around the corner

to what end though?
TO spend the majority of your time crossing vast expanses of space?

ANd wtf you gonna do when you get sucked into a black hole

 

[newworldafro]

One question......will health insurance pay for this ........................................

This is like that movie Surrogates with Bruce Willis.

Bingo.

 

[NkrumahWasRight Is Wrong]

So theoretically, one could do this repeatedly and live for eternity?

How would they ever prove it's the same consciousness, and not just something that seems equivalent?

Conspiracy theories would go up a whole 'nother level, also.

Imagine the people saying.."not only the same 13 bloodlines, but now the same actual people, for ages!"
