Humai wants to transfer your consciousness to an artificial body

The Daily Mail says it’s not really clear if this is a hoax or not, but the company claims its plans involve freezing a person’s brain before inserting a “personality” chip.

Bocanegra believes, somewhat optimistically, that his company will be able to resurrect the first human within the next 30 years.

Humai is using AI and nanotechnology to keep data of behavioral patterns, conversational styles, thought processes and details about how bodies function. The data collected could then be coded to many sensors then fed to the artificial bodies with the deceased person’s brain. Human-I-T tries to tackle both problems by transforming unwanted or inoperative technology into operational and educational tools for the millions in need and by bridging the digital divide. Australian startup company Humai seems to think so; it claims to be working on a way to transfer a person’s consciousness into an artificial body after they’ve died. PopSci caught up with Josh Bocanegra, CEO and founder of Humai for some answers. As they explain, the science means using cloning technology, they will be able to restore the brain as it matures. 30 years is a big window, but nowhere near big enough for technology to fill the gap. It will be achieved by the company creating an imprint of people to remain after they go. After this, the brain will then be implanted into an artificial body operated by thoughts extracted from the brain via waves.

Humai intends to do this hard task for eternal life by first collecting valuable data on its members years before their deaths using an extensive range of its company-developed apps. Despite this, the company is hopeful that the technology of artificial intelligence, bionics and nanotechnology will be in use in just three decades to come. Well, that is, we put our faith in the Australian startup Humai that wants to download people’s consciousness and transfer them into artificial bodies to give them eternal life.

‘As the brain ages we’ll use nanotechnology to fix and improve cells.

“I don’t think tombstones, photos, videos, or even our own memories are the best ways to remember someone who has passed”, Bocanegra said. “I don’t think of it as fighting death. I personally can not imagine why someone would want to die, but I respect everyone’s wishes”, Bocanegra adds.

Take, for example, the case of Michelle Funk – a two-and-a-half-year-old girl who fell into a creek near her home in Salt Lake City in 1986.
