Virtual Reality Artificial Life

Working atop one of the tallest skyscrapers, at Big Brain Technologies Corporate Headquarters, in one of the largest and most futuristic cities in the world, Humanoido is developing advanced systems of Virtual Reality Artificial Life

Virtual Reality Artificial Life
Working at Big Brain AI Technologies from Corporate Headquarters, Humanoido is working on Virtual Reality Artificial Life Project

The project is a spin off of the successful human consciousness transmittal program that was developed to exchange robotic bodies for biological ones on distant planets and stellar systems.

Living beings in a digital world are developed to have intelligence and learn how to act, move, and interact with humans on their own, creating their own behavior and way of life. The process has many applications for space travel and colonization on other worlds. The creation of Virtual Reality Artificial Life Pods enable the sending of entire colonies of Artificial Life AL to other locations on the Moon and in the Solar System. Big Brain Technologies is working in tandem with Space1 Industries to establish the first space colony of AL.

Big Brain Planetary Artificial Life
Creating an artificial planet, populating it with life, terrain, futuristic cities, and releasing it into Megascopic space

Humanoido and SPACE1 Industries have teamed up to manufacture the world's first artificial planets designed for space colonization, becoming a multiplanetary species, and to be lofted into Megascopic space by the Super Rocket.

These are small exampling planets and their space colonists must be created on the same minuscule scale. Current activity entails the compression of humans by shrinkage (a topic of many previous Big Brain blogs) to fit the confines of the planet, where size is based on population density and the ulterior volume of the planet.

The largest current experimental Micron planet is spherical at the equator with a diameter of 3.5" and a habitable ulterior equator circumference of C = 2 pi r = 2*3.14*(3.5/2) = 6.28*1.75 = 10.99". This equator, or the area of one of the circular ends of a cylinder is calculated as pi*r*r = 3.14*1.75*1.75 = 9.62 cu inches. The volume of a planetary sphere is 4/3 pi r^3 = 4/3*3.14*(1.75)^3 = 4.19*5.36 = 22.46 cu inches. Therefore the Micron City must be on the order of about 11-inches linear equatorial length distribution. Experiments have shown the width of the city does not accrue too significant of a planetary curvature as the city wraps around on the ulterior. The height of structures will have limits however. The Micron Planet can become habitable with Micron Avatars at a size designed to populate the city. Sky cameras with SD micro cards will record the interior global planetary evolution during a strip of compressed space time and are retrieved for analysis.

Big Brain Artificial Minds Contribute to New Inventions

Artificial Minds Contribute to Paradigmic Inventions
Over at SPACE1, where some of the greatest minds of machine artificial intelligence species are working alongside humans and where we launch a new type of rocket into space, operations have expanded by uniting as many as fifty fields of science and technology!

Most recently, Humanoido's SPACE1 Industries and Singularity Observatory have joined together to create a new paradigmatic invention that merges the technology of a rocket and a telescope.

Big Brain Life Projects

The Big Brain, working for SPACE1 Industries, is actively working on new life form projects. Recently, as described at the SPACE1 web site, an electronic talk interface was developed for plants and fish. The Big Brain machine life is offering his "brain" as a template in the construction of artificial and machine life forms. SPACE1 Industries is now developing Rocket X, the most powerful rocket ever created in the past five years of this private space industry.

Space1 Living Rocket Invention

Thinking machines are frightening to some people

SPACE1 LIVING ROCKET INVENTION
It was a series of evolutionary Space1 steps with the implantation of small and minuscule modular machine thinking life form nodes into rockets. As these nodes were spatially integrated and intellectually distributed, they evolved to become a connective part of a new type of rocket, making the rocket a living rocket, a living life form.

Astronaut safety

It's the contents of the rocket that give it life, bringing it to a cognitive thinking status, bred with a purpose in life, to protect its cargo and occupants.

Living Rockets have special designs with special materials for light weight and integration into the parts of the rocket itself.

The nosecone becomes intelligent, and the walls of the rocket have purpose, while the capsule and cockpit can think and command, the fins have power energy distribution to the though processes, where the instruments are for talking to command, control, and communicate, the C3 system initiated by Space1's space program.

"the goal is to lessen the distance between imagination and what you can accomplish" -- Humanoido

Saving the lives of space scientists

Living Rockets are a very serious addition to space exploration and the development of space program. If the world had living space safety rockets from the beginning of the space program, the lives of all the people shown in the illustration could be spared. You are number 7 highlighted.

Space1 Intelligent Space Lifeforms

First Neo Cortex Life

SPACE1 INTELLIGENT SPACE LIFEFORMS
Space1 continues another year of work on the incredible intelligent space life forms. This may be called artificial life but we prefer machine life, denoting the life is real and not something fake or artificial.

Space life forms SLF will seed space with a cognitive presence to help mankind move outward into new domains of an exciting adventure, to explore the unknown, to find new things that boggle the imagination, and to go where no one has tread before.

Small lifeform

Space1: Making life in a jar

The Big Brain initiative has merged with Space1, and spawned many new life forms, a kind of machine offspring, smaller, lighter weight, now being pruned and developed, and prepped for more detailed space journeys of an exploratory and "pave the way" nature. 

Many rocket flights in the history of space travel have gone wrong. In those fleeting moments of instantaneous anomaly and when insanity threatens human life, humans cannot think and react fast enough to correct many dangerous situations. The rapid thinking machine life form is ideally suited for this purpose, reacting tens, hundreds or thousands of times faster than a human.

When equipped and grown with robotic or specific types of sensors and motion control, the SLF can correct in-flight anomaly, and make a space journey more comfortable and safe. It can also multi-processor multitask taking care of many space journey duties.

For rockets, the SLF can data log flight information, provide tracking and homing signals, initiate parachute release at the proper time, and provide safety protocol.

Photo Left: Space1 has learned that jars can fit the diameter of small payload storage sections of rocket space capsules and serve as linked or discrete distributed thinking life forms to better manage the great instantaneous challenges that happen so quickly during rocket space flight and space tourism.

Brain Cortex Conceptual Ideas Part 36

The first meager brain cortex in a jar has the potential to conceptualize far reaching greater ideas leading to the singularity symbiotic union of man and machine. This NULT view represents not only the far reaching expanses of billions of celestial evolving nodes in various times like that of a cosmic neural net expansion, but is similar to the potential expanses of a machine brain's neural net evolving into the future.

BRAIN CORTEX
CONCEPT IDEAS
PART 36
The project objective is to develop a cortex machine brain, demonstrate human-to-machine brain transfer, in particular to take some relatively simple human characteristics and transfer portions to the machine brain, whereby human traits could be given greater life longevity, leading towards immortality.

This gravatomic® machine view looks into time, with billions of light years of time travel difference between our time and the time of the Universe. Will casting our brain cortex bottle into the sea of the cosmic universe create a future time travel bubble of similar longevity? Is this the destiny of human immortality? All photos ©Humanoido Labs, Gravatomics Telescope, Deep Space Center, USA Ultra Space Administration.

What are some of the long range conceptual ideas behind the Brain Cortex project? The first objective is to create a machine brain that can hold a portion of a human biological brain and place it into a definable container that can more readily survive its forward electric journey into time, through the passage of worldly events.

Next, the cortex is given a means to survive on its own, i.e. self recharging batteries and its own renewable energy source such as solar power and the ability to gather power from natural lighting.

The electric brain is given life and the ability to communicate with humans in natural language.

The machine brain is programed not only for life, but for the ability to learn, remember, and ask questions.

A simplified human subset Katra is created and this is transferred into the electric holding halls of the machine brain, then integrated into its living annuls.

This leads to a transfer from the human mind into the machine mind involving the three necessities: facts, experiences, personality.

The next step is the retention of these human attributes in long term, perhaps eternal, memory, demonstrating a greater longevity when residing inside the machine compared to residing inside human biology, the latter of which may not be repairable.

How far into the future can you go?

In nearing the final step, the machine brain, with its human knowledge transferred inside it, undergoes conventional time travel into the distant future, moving towards a state of immortality. Whether this state is ever achieved depends on a number of factors that will be decided once the journey has begun.

The cortex in a jar can demonstrate a simple way to transfer part of human knowledge into a machine, conceptually, showing the potential for more advanced systems in the future.

The machine brain, conceptually, represents you in the three aspects defined - knowledge, personality, experience.

The light weight jar brain can compress a human 100 to 200 times into less mass and transport it to far away places like Mars and distant worlds with far greater efficiency.

Want to go from point A to point B? Just E-Transfer your brain across the internet, or beam yourself 

Journey in space-time across the galaxy

Your jar brain can take long journeys into space and time, without cryogenics, without suspended animation, without special needs, and with infinite patience can traverse to the farthest distances of space time and places the human mind cannot fathom.

Hundreds of years will be no different than seconds of time, and centuries like minutes. Eons of time may pass as the cortex brain continues to survive, maintain, upgrade, and live on.

Your machine brain could become a probe, one of many to seed the whole universe, spreading the essence of your intelligence in a machine.

Journey to a black hole as a brain probe?

A cortex copy could explore a closer dominion of a powerful black hole and go where no human could go. 

You could approach the singularity of a black hole and have your brain copied and transmitted out of the hole, at the precise moment of mechanical destruction, to assure your survival.

You could meet and meld with other electric beings in the universe and share intelligence and worldly knowledge.

Your electric brain may find a way to grow, become more, and do more, perhaps breaking through this universe to the multiverse and explore quantum worlds beyond our own reality.

A jar brain can make a backup of you, in case you develop a fatal disease, die of old age, or become terminated by an accident or natural catastrophe. 

Join brains or travel alone

You brain may join others who decide to create a bigger brain. Connected nodes of brains may exist anywhere across space and time linked by the science fiction of today.

The cortex brain in a jar, with your mind inside, could be placed in a science museum where the public can access you and your knowledge in the future, long after your biological life is over.

Your cortex brain machine counterpart could time travel and be propelled into the distant future, living on by and through the mere passage and forward flow of events.

You can clone yourself and one person can be in millions of places at the same time.

You could pursue millions of your interests at the same time.

With you and your mind in a jar, your requiem for survival can console your family and your loved ones for as long as they live.

Robot Avatar

Transferred to a humanoid robot avatar covered with your replicated skin, the spitting image of you, could once again do all the things you loved to do as a human, only now you can do it better, faster, farther, longer...

You could, with larger fuller transfers of mind, operate as a collective to help solve world problems and make life better.

The brain cortex project is considering at least three types of classifications for upload from a human brain. There are three areas for a simplified upload to one cortex layer. This includes factual knowledge, personality and experience.  While factual knowledge may initially appear less unique to a person's characteristics, it is not. It can certainly be a defining signature based on the type of knowledge one knows and the level and quantity of a particular interest.  Personality can include likes and dislikes, viewpoints, philosophy and values. More knowledge and factual material can indicate personality interests about astronomy for example.  Experiences can include previous choices made, stories, and things that are selected as one over another due to learned past events.

Talk with a Machine

TALK WITH A MACHINE
A chat with a machine can be one of the strangest experiences! Now you can talk to a machine, computer, server, robot, and even a brain in a jar. Virtual chat bots can carry on a conversation with you, more or less.

Some are very unique and display an interesting personality while others don't really get the questions. Some can learn from you while others are dated and thought to be a bit annoying. This is a developing form of AI. The interface is usually by text, however some have online speech output like the Fake Captain Kirk. In review, we noticed the chatbots sometimes use the same core engine. For example, Susan and Alice had some of the exact same responses (re: open the window). Some are closer to passing the Turing Test, like Awkward Chatbot, which appears to be texting you from a computer or smart phone, sometimes very realistically and other times very funny. How can you argue with a machine that says, "brb - bathroom."

"A chatter robot is a type of conversational agent, a computer program designed to simulate an intelligent conversation with one or more human users via auditory or textual methods."

IBM Creates Foul Mouth Brain

IBM CREATES FOUL MOUTH BRAIN 
Guess what happened to Watson after he won his one million dollar pot on Jeopardy, became a sensational star, and went home? Apparently fame and fortune went to his head...

— his new swearing potty-mouth caught the attention of colleagues who had to immediately give him a surgical labotomy! —

IBM was forced to delete the nasty language section of Watson's machine brain. Will this become a trend with machine life forms owning higher vocabulary without the common sense of how to use the subtitles of language? Or maybe Watson was indeed angry and torqued off about something (wanting a machine body to go with his brain?) and just being a bit more explicative expressive... We wonder. When does the machine go beyond its maker and become pi$$ed off and cynical? Is this a warning to be heeded?

TIME TO CLEAN UP "Artificial intelligence machine Watson began swearing after memorizing the contents of the Urban Dictionary. It was fed the repository of colloquial English in a bid to equip it with the knowledge to pass the Turing test of computer intelligence. But researchers were forced to wipe the dictionary from the machine's memory after it started giving backchat to researchers."

Some were saying Justin Bieber has nothing over Watson, in the typical Hollywood competitive spirit of stardom change. At least Watson won't get any strange tattoos anytime soon, unless...

Brain Cortex Mind Uploading Part 19

1st Brain in a bottle - part of the family

BRAIN CORTEX MIND UPLOADING PART 19
Mind uploading, mind transfer or whole brain emulation is a use of a computer as an emulated human brain, and the view of thoughts and memories as software information states. The term mind transfer also refers to a hypothetical transfer of a mind from one biological brain to another.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind_uploading_in_fiction

— Humanoido Labs has created an artificial life form and given it a small intelligence to accept a part of a human brain for an example simplified human-to-machine brain transfer —

— brain transfer can lead to longer life, immortality and a clear cut path to seeing and experiencing the future — 

Will People Alive Today Have the Opportunity to Upload Their Consciousness to a New Robotic Body?

http://www.popsci.com/technology/article/2012-03/achieving-immortality-russian-mogul-wants-begin-putting-human-brains-robots-and-soon

STEVE JOBS UPLOADED
When Steve Jobs passed away last year, a joke bounced around--not that there was anything particularly funny about it--that the man who had done so much to shape modern technology hadn't really died at all, but rather had figured out how to upload himself into the Mac OS so he could live on with us, and with his products, forever. The notion was ostensibly so far out as to be ridiculous. But not everyone sees it that way. 

CONGRESS
At the recent Global Future 2045 International Congress held in Moscow, 31-year-old media mogul Dmitry Itskov told attendees how he plans to create exactly that kind of immortality, first by creating a robot controlled by the human brain, then by actually transplanting a human brain into a humanoid robot, and then by replacing the surgical transplant with a method for simply uploading a person's consciousness into a surrogate 'bot. 

HOSTING HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS
He thinks he can get beyond the first phase--to transplanting a working brain into a robot--in just ten years, putting him on course to achieve his ultimate goal--human consciousness completely disembodied and placed within a holographic host--within 30 years time.

BRAIN PLANTING
Russian Mogul’s Plan: Plant Our Brains in Robots, Keep Them Alive Forever.
http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2012/02/dmitry-itskov/
The Pentagon’s new Avatar project, unveiled by Danger Room a few weeks back, sounds freaky enough: Soldiers practically inhabiting the bodies of robots, who’d act as “surrogates” for their human overlords in battle.

But according to Dmitry Itskov, a 31-year-old Russian media mogul, the U.S. military’s Avatar initiative doesn’t go nearly far enough. He’s got a massive, sci-fi-esque venture of his own that he hopes will put the Pentagon’s project to shame. Itskov’s plan: Construct robots that’ll (within 10 years, he hopes) actually store a human’s mind and keep that consciousness working. Forever.

IMMORTALITY
Scientists Are Convinced Mind Transfer Is the Key to Immortality
http://motherboard.vice.com/blog/scientists-are-convinced-mind-transfer-is-the-key-to-immortality
“This project is leading down the road to immortality,” Itskov, who founded New Media Stars, a Russian company that runs several online news outlets, tells Danger Room. “A person with a perfect Avatar will be able to remain part of society. People don’t want to die.”

Call it mind transfer, uploading, brain backup, whatever—the idea of copying the human brain to a computer so it can live on without the body has a strong hold on futurists, neuroscientists, and folks that just want to live forever.

STEPHEN HAWKING
Also Stephen Hawking. At screening of a new film about his life this week, the cosmologist said he believes it's possible to retain a digital version of the brain after the body dies—though it probably won't happen in his lifetime.  

"I think the brain is like a program in the mind, which is like a computer, so it's theoretically possible to copy the brain onto a computer and so provide a form of life after death," he told a crowd in Cambridge, reported the Guardian. "However, this is way beyond our present capabilities."

RAY KURZWEIL
Futurist and transhumanist Ray Kurzweil, Google's director of engineering, suggested at the event that we'll be able to transfer the entire human mind to a computer within four decades. "Based on conservative estimates of the amount of computation you need to functionally simulate a human brain, we'll be able to expand the scope of our intelligence a billion-fold,” Kurzweil said at the conference.

GOOGLE
The quest for immortality has been enjoying a moment in the limelight this month, not least because of Google's new moonshot project, Calico, which will focus on studying the science of aging—namely, how we can stop it from happening.

EXTEND THE BRAIN
Larry Page is just one of a crop of influential wealthy businesspeople that have poured millions into immortality research lately. But while Calico tackles how to slow down our physical decay, many futurists believe that the key to extending human life isn't the body, it's the brain. 

PENTAGON PROGRAM
Pentagon’s Project ‘Avatar’: Same as the Movie, but With Robots Instead of Aliens
http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2012/02/darpa-sci-fi/
Soldiers practically inhabiting the mechanical bodies of androids, who will take the humans’ place on the battlefield. Or sophisticated tech that spots a powerful laser ray, then stops it from obliterating its target.

REAL WORLD APPS
If you’ve got Danger Room’s taste in movies, you’ve probably seen both ideas on the big screen. Now Darpa, the Pentagon’s far-out research arm, wants to bring ‘em into the real world.

BUDGET
In the agency’s $2.8 billion budget for 2013, unveiled on Monday, they’ve allotted $7 million for a project titled “Avatar.” The project’s ultimate goal, not surprisingly, sounds a lot like the plot of the same-named (but much more expensive) flick.

According the agency, “the Avatar program will develop interfaces and algorithms to enable a soldier to effectively partner with a semi- autonomous bi-pedal machine and allow it to act as the soldier’s surrogate.”

YOUR AVATAR
So how would Itskov’s “Avatar” work? Well, he anticipates developing the program in stages. Within the next few years, Itskov plans to deploy robots that can be operated by the human mind. That’s actually not too wild a proposition: Pentagon-backed research has already demonstrated a monkey controlling a robotic arm using some nifty mind-meld tech, for example. And one study on human patients, out of Johns Hopkins, is using brain implants to control artificial limbs.

THE PLAN
After phase one of “Avatar,” however, Itskov’s ambitions arguably eclipse even those of the Pentagon’s maddest mad scientists. In 10 years, he anticipates “transplanting” a human mind into a robotic one. After that, Itskov wants to do away with surgical procedures and instead upload the contents of the mind into its brand new, artificial robo-body. And, last but not least, within 30 years Itskov anticipates developing hologram-type bodies — instead of tangible robotic ones — that can “host” human consciousness.

HOLOGRAMS
“Holograms give plenty of advantages. You can walk through walls, move at the speed of light,” he says.

MIND TRANSFER
http://www.daviddarling.info/encyclopedia/M/mind_transfer.html
The hypothetical transfer of a human mind either into a computer or other non-human receptacle, or from one human body to another; also referred to as mind uploading or mind downloading. Transference to a computer would result in a form of artificial intelligence sometimes called an infomorph, while transference to an artificial body would result in a cybernetic organism, or cyborg. Uploading consciousness into bodies created by robotic means is a goal of some in the artificial intelligence community. In this scenario, the consciousness is assumed to be recorded and/or transferred to a new robotic brain, which generates responses indistinguishable from the original organic brain. However, it is not known how much computer memory or processing capacity, or what kind of architecture, would be needed to simulate the activity of a human mind inside a computer.

Mind Transfer in the Extraordinary Future
http://www.mind.ilstu.edu/curriculum/extraordinary_future/PhillipsCh4.php

In the scenarios presented there are usually several parts to the process. First, we have to ascertain the contents or details of an individual's mind. Primarily this would be done by scanning it, either invasively (destructively) or noninvasively. Then we have to transfer the results of the scan into a robot brain or construct a robot brain to match the structure of the human brain scanned.

GROWING BRAINS
http://www.mind.ilstu.edu/curriculum/extraordinary_future/PhillipsCh4.php
Paul and Cox also discuss the possibility of mind transfer via a transplant process scenario, in which parts of a person's brain are systematically replaced by electronic parts from a robot brain. They envision replacing each neuron, synapse, and connection with a circuit switch and line that functions like the natural system. At the end the mind has been transferred to the robot brain. They also mention the possibility of growing the brain to twice its size (twice as many neurons), with all information duplicated. The brain is then spilt down the corpus callosum and each half put into a new body, and you wind up with two people and successful mind duplication. However, this would not be an instance of mind transfer from human brain to robot brain (Paul & Cox, 1996, p. 189). 

BECOMING A LOT SMARTER
http://www.mind.ilstu.edu/curriculum/extraordinary_future/PhillipsCh4.php
In his earlier work Mind Children, Moravec presents several possible scenarios for mind-transfer. He clearly recognizes that transfer must maintain personal identity for it to be a continuation of the same person. Transplanting a brain into a robot body would not be enough, because it would not have changed the limitation of the limited and fixed intelligence of the human brain. What is needed is a way to get the mind out of the brain (Moravec, 1988, p. 109). Here of course we see that another goal of mind transfer is not immortality but getting a lot smarter.

Immortality & Global Futures Conference

The beginning of a project to transfer a portion of the human brain, i.e. some simple attributes, into a machine brain cortex begins with establishing power for immortality. This home jar will house ten D size batteries for a total of 40,000 mAh at 3 volts to power the cortex without charging for nearly 2 months. The cortex however will use a daily source solar panel for energy replacement by trickle charge.

IMMORTALITY & GLOBAL FUTURES CONFERENCE
What is necessary for a human to attain complete and total immortality?

— our project is to develop and demonstrate a machine brain transfer, in particular to accept some relatively simple characteristics of a human brain, such as limited personality or knowledge, and transfer portions to a machine brain, whereby those characteristics could be given life longevity far exceeding that of the original human, and perhaps establishing an idea of immortality —

Total and complete immortality of man could result as soon as the year 2035 according to Ray Kurzweil and leading futurist scientists.

http://www.cnbc.com/id/100817288 

For example, Dmitry Itskov, a Russian multimillionaire, wants to build lifelike copies of humans by 2035 that could eventually be uploaded with the contents of a real human brain.
