Bioelectrical phenomena are the most basic characteristics of life activities. Various organisms, from bacteria to elephants, have bioelectrical activities of varying degrees of strength.
Electricity generates magnetism, and magnetism generates electricity. This is the rule of physics.
Electric fields and magnetic fields exist at the same time. If the human brain has changes in bioelectricity and electric fields, a magnetic field must exist.
With scientific instruments, the existence of the brain's magnetic field can be detected. It looks like fluctuations. This fluctuation is called brain waves.
Brain waves are the sum of the postsynaptic potentials of billions of neurons in the cerebral cortex, and the formation of their synchronous rhythm is related to the activity of the non-specific projection system of the cerebral cortex.
Brainwave sensing technology has long existed, and some brainwave-controlled toys have appeared on the market.
For example, if the brain waves control drones, etc., when the human brain concentrates, the activity of the cerebral cortex will become stronger and the brain waves will become stronger. This allows the head-mounted sensor to sense the magnetic field activity of the brain and trigger commands to control the drone, but this is only the most basic application of brain waves.
The brain wave sensing device that Chen Mo wants to study also senses brain waves. The difference is that Chen Mo needs to combine super quantum computing to simulate and calculate the synaptic activity inside the brain and the formation of brain waves, and then let Mo Nu's 'quantum brain' Simulate this rhythm, thereby imitating the workings of the brain.
There is another term related to the neural activity of the brain, which is consciousness.
In philosophy, 'consciousness' is used in opposition to 'matter' as an object of study.
Biologically speaking, consciousness is considered to be a high-level organized form of matter. It refers to the sum of the characteristics that living things can perceive through their physical perception systems and related perception processing activities.
Experimental research shows that consciousness is generated by neural activity within the brain, which requires sufficient excitement of neurons in some parts of the brain for a sufficient period of time.
The human brain is the most complex and mysterious organizational system in nature.
In infancy, the neural network of the human brain has been perfected. However, except for specific neural channels such as breathing and sucking, the thickness of other neural network connections in infants is basically the same. Therefore, in infancy, neural signal transmission in the brain is ineffective. , no memory, consciousness chaotic.
For example, when a baby distinguishes colors, his eye structure is the same as that of an adult, but in the brain's neural network, the neural channels related to color, shape, etc. have not been formed, so it is difficult for a baby to form effective consciousness when looking at one thing alone. After education, conditioned reflexes are formed, which can allow the baby's brain to grow.
The operating mechanism of consciousness is similar to that of a computer program, but artificial intelligence will never reach the heights of humans. Because artificial intelligence does not have self-awareness, it is impossible to have independent thinking activities and replace human wisdom and creativity.
But the 'quantum brain' can simulate this kind of 'self-awareness'. Through terrifying computing power, quantum can simulate the advanced orderly organization of any material existence.
A baby's consciousness is similar to a chaotic state, and Mo Nu's current 'quantum brain' activity is also in a chaotic state of disorder. There is no orderly organization between the more than 1,000 quanta.
The difference between the two is that babies can communicate with the outside world through a complete nervous system connected to the brain, form true perceptions, stimulate brain growth, and slowly form mature and effective consciousness through learning. Mo Nu's 'quantum brain' only receives data without temperature and color, and is not a real 'perception'.
Chen Mo needs to use neural consciousness system technology and brainwave induction devices as a bridge between human consciousness and the 'quantum brain' to open up the induction channel between the 'quantum brain' and reality, allowing the 'quantum brain' to simulate 'consciousness' The advanced orderly form state creates the 'quantum consciousness' belonging to Mo Nu.
This is creating a 'soul' from scratch, and perhaps another topic of debate between philosophy and quantum.
On the laboratory test bench.
Chen Mo carefully took a pink hat in his hand and looked at it. There was another identical pink hat on the experimental table as a spare.
It's like a knitted hat, but it's not. This is a hat made of materials with special magnetic field induction.
It integrates a brainwave sensing device, integrating more than 10,000 micro-brainwave sensors, as well as a neurological consciousness system. It is also equipped with a quantum chip with sufficient calculation capacity. The quantum chip is connected to Mo Nu's 'quantum brain' through the sensor. All brain activities simulated by the nervous consciousness system will form an orderly combination of quantum beats and be transmitted to Mo Nu's 'quantum brain'.
Three small supercapacitor cells embedded in the hat can provide the hat with continuous operation for 36 hours.
The second phase of the expansion of the space center base has begun. In this area, he no longer has to worry and pay too much attention.
Therefore, after the project started, Chen Mo focused on the research of brain wave sensing devices and neural consciousness system technology. The two months of research have finally yielded results.
"finished."
Chen Mo looked at the pink hat in front of him with great satisfaction, with the cartoon army ant with the logo of the army ant group printed on it.
A bit cute and girly, suitable for little girls.
Due to the need to simulate a large number of human daily activities, Xiaoyu must wear this device when going out and contacting the outside world, thereby producing different emotions and perceptions. If it were made into a helmet-type or headband-type, it would probably be strange and unsightly.
Wear this 'hat' when you go out, and you don't have to worry about the looks of passers-by.
In addition to its appearance, its technology is completed strictly according to the technical requirements within the Science and Technology Library.
There are many functional regional brain wave rhythms in the human brain, and the frequency bands of each functional area's rhythm are different. This brain wave sensor can accurately identify various rhythms.
After hundreds of tests and inspections, the phenomenon is basically the same as described in the technical theory.
The brainwave sensing system and neural consciousness system technology is completed, and the next step is to enter the formal experimental stage.
"Go look at your new body."
Chen Mo put the two hats in his suitcase and headed to the robotics laboratory.
Mo Nu's body now contains the old chips and old technology. The quantum chip was replaced, and new materials appeared in the science and technology library. Chen Mo took this opportunity to give Mo Nu a new body.
On the experimental table of the robotics laboratory, Mo Nu's new body was lying quietly. The new body was exactly the same as Mo Nu's original body, without any changes.
This new body has been upgraded again, made of new materials, and the strength of the materials has become much stronger. Unless you have special weapons, don't even think about destroying this body.
In her new body, the latest quantum chip that can control 1087 qubits is installed as a 'quantum brain'. The quantum chip can be updated and replaced at any time. There is no need to worry about the need to replace the new body when the quantum chip becomes more advanced. question.
"Mo Nu, copy the core intelligence program into the new body." Chen Mo said to Mo Nu next to him after activating Mo Nu's new body.
"OK."
It took ten minutes for the huge data to be transferred.
"Should the previous body be shut down and put in the storage room?" Mo Nu asked.
"right."
Chen Mo stroked Mo Nu's head, still a little reluctant.
After receiving Chen Mo's instructions, Mo Nu nodded and turned towards the collection room.
Chen Mo curiously touched the skin on Mo Nu's body. This new body felt the same as a real person: "Put on your clothes and go home, find your little sister Yu, and then I will do experiments on you so that you can have human emotions and thinking. .”
"Um."
Mo Nu showed a smile, quickly got up from the experimental table, put on her clothes, and walked to Chen Mo.
