In his January 2010, essay “Killed by Bad Philosophy” Ken Hayworth discusses “mind uploading” from a philosophical perspective that includes a discussion of “what is the self” and a warning to not let current “scientific” philosophy lead to a “fatal” error in judgement about the possibility of “mind uploading”. http://www.brainpreservation.org/documents/killed_by_bad_philosophy.pdf .

At www.LifeNaut.com, we are often asked how would it work and why would you want to create a Mindflile. Creating a digital record (Mindfile) of a person’s unique characteristics (attitudes,values,mannerisms, and beliefs) may one day enable artificial intelligence software to transfer “a good enough copy” a person’s mind to a computer and one day even […]

By Virginia Prescott on Tuesday, July 27, 2010. A Word Of Mouth first: an interview with a robot. Not your typical movie star robot with an all-knowing brain or one that talks in squalks. Bina 48 isn’t made of gleaming metal, and has no body. Just a neck and head that looks uncannily human; with […]
LifeNaut Notes: Here’s a really cool article from Smart Machines that includes a brief video of a medical robot undergoing trail tests. Some pretty cool stuff to think that a robot could be automated to operate on the human body.

LifeNaut Notes: A bionic device by definition is the mix of biology and electronics. The Rex Exoskeleton attached to the both to help paraplegics move about in a normal manner. It would seem in this example that the human element is teaching the mechanical element, but who’s to say it’s not the other way around? […]
