…Cell Assemblies Hopfield nets and their ilk play a dual role: as computational algorithms, and as conceptual models of brain function. In CogPrime they are used as inspiration for slightly different, artificial economics based computational algorithms; but their hypothesized rel...

…reated in adult animals/humans. The development of new neurons — neuronogenesis — is a vital part of maintaining normal brain and mental functioning. New neurons are being created, importantly, in the hippocampus (brain organ where new memories are encoded) — but, remarkably, the...

… everywhere in the world: He suggested a large-­‐scale initiative to create a detailed map of the activity of the human brain, at the level of individual neurons. This idea is quite similar to (and likely inspired by) Henry Markram’s Blue Brain project in Lausanne, which recently...

…tations are continuously influenced by affect. Qualitatively, this mimics the way that particular emotions in the human brain correlate with the dissemination throughout the brain of particular neurotransmitters, which then affect synaptic activity. A result of this architecture...

…reas in the approach suggested here, these are to be carried out by collective activity of humans as mediated by Global Brain technologies. Our perspective is that the definition of collective human values is probably better carried out via a process of human collaboration, rathe...

…e decades, however, will probably be time enough for the raw information-processing power of computers to match that of brains—at least by the crude measures of number of bits and number of bit-flips per second. Human brains are intricately constructed, the process of millions o...
