Human immortality: The idea of immortality has been related to the beginning of human civilization. In the Vedic period and mythological texts, sages and sages have mentioned penance to become immortal. He considered immortality to be a divine boon, which could be obtained only by the grace of God. Science emerged over time and humans decided to get this “divinity” technically.
Today we are at a turn where technological progress has taken steps towards converting immortality into reality. The most popular names in this direction are – Dr. Ian Pearson. They draw a picture of the future, in which a person can survive in a “digital form” despite physical death by transferring his mind to a computer.
Doctor Ian Pearson claims: Humans will not die
Doctor Ian Pearson, a famous futurologist believes that by 2050, the technology will develop so much that humans will be able to upload their entire personality, memories and thinking ability to a machine or robotic body. This process is called Mind Uploading.
Dr. Ian Pearson’s statement
They say that by 2050 this technique will be limited to the rich class only. By 2060, the middle class will also be able to take advantage of this. The aging process can be slowed through biotechnology and genetic engineering. Tools such as brain-computer interface (BCI) can transfer memories and thinking to digital form. There is a belief behind this ideology that if the brain data is preserved and active, even if the body is not there, a person can remain technically “immortal”.
Artificial Intelligence and Ray Kurjvil predicted
Doctor Piercene’s words are strengthened when we look at the prediction of Ray Kurzwil. Kurjwil, who is a former Google engineer and world -famous futuristic, says AI will match human brain by 2029. In the 2030s, the human mind will be able to connect directly to the cloud. In the 2030s, humans can become a Siborg by 2045 i.e. half human, half a machine. Many of the predictions of Ray Kurjwel have proved to be true, such as computer victory in chess and revolutionary effects of smartphones. They believe that the machine and human meeting will be the point when a person will be able to preserve his consciousness in digital form.
