Continuum of consciousness: Mind uploading and resurrection of human consciousness. Is there a place for physics, neuroscience and computers?
V. Astakhov ;
Date 12 Oct 2007
AbstractIn this paper, I perform mental experiment to analyze hypothetical process of mind uploading. That process suggested as a way to achieve resurrection of human consciousness. Mind uploading can be seen as a migration process of the core mental functions, which migrate from a human brain to an artificial environment. To simulate the process, I suggest a topological approach which is based on a formalism of information geometry. Geometrical formalism lets us simulate the toy mind as geometrical structures as well as gives us powerful geometrical and topological methods for analysis of the information system. This approach leads to the insight about using holographic model as an analogy for the mind migration to an artificial environment. This model represents the toy mind functionality in terms of information geometry (as a geometrical shape) on information manifold. Such shape can have distributed holographic representation. This representation gives us delocalized representation of the system. At the same time, the process of creating the holographic representation gives us a strategy to migrate from original to an artificial environment and back. The interface between brain and an environment is modeled as an entropy flow which is defined as a geometrical flow on information manifold. Such flow is an analogy of holography recording for the toy mind. The opposite process of holography reconstruction is modeled by none-local Hamiltonians defined on the information manifold.
