Comment on What If There’s No AGI?
frezik@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 day agoI see this line of thinking as more useful as a thought experiment than as something we should actually do. Yes, we can theoretically map out a human brain and simulate it in extremely high detail. That’s probably both inefficient and unnecessary. What it does do is get us past the idea that it’s impossible to make a computer that can think like a human. Without relying on some kind of supernatural soul, there must be some theoretical way we could do this. We just need to know how without simulating individual atoms.

It might be helpful to make one full brain simulation, so that we can start removing parts and seeing what needs to stay. I definitely don’t think that we should be mass-producing then, though.
