No Intelligence Without Motion
[Former Astronaut Dan Barry MD PhD: How to Meet an Alien]
I like this reversal of the alien intelligence metaphor: rather than figuring out how consciousness from another solar system works, build our own “alien” intelligence.
Furthermore, rather than building new kinds of intelligence as an imposing of logical/intellectual properties, start from motion and perception – because that’s the origin of whatever is called intelligence.

Enter the ROBO-MDs
Machines beat humans at chess. Machines can pilot airplanes to land at O’Hare or on Mars. There is now a machine that beats the best of us at Jeopardy.
And, many predict that an Artificial Intelligent [AI] medical clinician is ten years away. And, no one will use a biological doctor in twenty five years. Then, the singularity.
So, if you think ROBO-MDs won’t decimate the industry … think again!

“This Visit May Be Recorded”
In their 1993 book, Reinventing Government, David Osborne and Ted Gaebler entitled a section “what gets measured gets done.”
Unfortunately, when it comes to improving health care quality, safety, and costs, we often fail to observe the real work of care, and miss the chance to get it done better. To make a real difference, we need to begin measuring care when and where it happens – behind the curtain.

Brain-to-Brain Communication Is Closer Than You Think
When neuroscientists used a monkey’s thoughts to control computers, it was a huge breakthrough in mind-machine research. But, harnessing brain waves has become even more complex now that humans are the subjects.

Recently, researchers used the thoughts of one human’s brain to control the physical actions of another.

Nectome
Nectome is a startup claiming that it can invent a technology that can immortalize the human brain by digitally uploading its content into the cloud. However, in order for your mind to live forever, you have to die first.
Nectome is working on a futuristic method – aldehyde-stabilized cryopreservation (ASC) – which it claims will encode a person’s mind by preserving the brain’s neural connections, helping it to live on for hundreds of years.

GOOGLE and “REAL” SEARCH ENGINES
An investor asked us yesterday: “Why isn’t Google also working on a Neuroscience search engine like ContextualWeb?”
Here is what we answered:
“Google has no interest in developing technologies that will make search engines 1000 times cheaper. It will put in a high risk its most valuable asset which is the HUGE barriers to entry to the internet search market.”
NOTE: ContextualWeb = Search engines that mimic the human brain.
Any thoughts?
