Backing up mobiles, computers, laptops can be done with a pinch. But can the brain be backed up? Suppose this happens, can the memory in the brain be restored with such a backup? And what is the value of all this?
The idea of backing up the brain may seem like a dream come true, but a company in the US is really researching it.
The company says it can get complete information about the thoughts and memories of the deceased's brain.
"One day you will be able to back up your brain but for that you will have to pay for your life," the startup claims.
"We will develop technology that can back up the brain and perform a full brain scan," said Netcom.
"Anyway, this research is deadly. It's life threatening," said the MIT Technology Review.
Y Combinator has invested in Netcom. This organization works to fund new organizations for research. Y Combinator has previously funded Dropbox and AirBnB.
One day we will be able to study all the structures and nerve networks in the brain. This study can be done in such detail that you can find out what is going on in your brain. This means you can back up your entire brain. Netcom has said that after death, we will have to investigate what happens in the person's head.
The network has received approximately Rs 60 crore in funding from the US National Institute of Mental Health. "Financing Netcom would be commercially viable," he said.
"Netcom has considered legal issues before launching this project. Netcom has asked lawyers about the laws regarding 'honorable' deaths in California," MIT claimed. He plans to do this experiment on people suffering from chronic diseases.
The brain is controlled using the method of 'embambing'. Using this method, they managed the rabbit's brain. His research has also received an award.
"We've recently taken care of a woman's brain in Portland. Even if a little time is wasted after death, that person's brain can't be taken care of," Netcom said.
So if someone is going to die, it will be easier for that person's brain to take care of you, the company said.
What about memories
Research has not yet been developed to regenerate memories in the brain after death, but research is ongoing on what your brain thinks for some time before death.
It is an exaggeration to say that thoughts and memories in the brain can be preserved after death, according to some experts. He also said that striving for human immortality has become a trend in Silicon Valley in recent times.
Some companies are saving the human body with the help of cryonic preservation. The purpose behind this is that you will be able to come back to life in the future when the technology of resuscitation is developed. Of course, that technology has not been developed yet.
Also, it is not clear what the purpose of Netcom's experiment is.
You can save your brain in Netcom for Rs 6.5 lakh. According to the MIT Technology Review, 25 people have saved their brains so far.
There is a fundamental difference between cryonic service and netcom. That is, Netcom will not try to keep those people alive.
When an old person dies, the wisdom that is with him is destroyed. A person can keep the information he has, but how can he do it wisely? That is the question asked by Robert McLintire, co-founder of Netcom.
He goes on to say that it is easy to pass on that information to another generation, but it is difficult to pass on that person's wisdom.
