Artificial person

No comments
Dark Ages era has spawned a series of myths and legends that have come down to our days. The picture of the world of those people, dramatically different from ours, but we can observe the evolution of the beliefs and ideas that come down to us through the centuries. World altered, changed us, but not our wants and needs. Then, people could only dream about the incredible speed and the ability to communicate. Now - we have those magicians and wizards, which believed hundreds of years ago. And it is natural, because modern technology - is indistinguishable from magic.
Creating artificial man occupied a separate niche. Cultivation of the living tissue, the revival of the dead, an attempt to create a clay monster - it all seemed a masterpiece of science at the time Intense. But now we realize the insignificance of those attempts. Modern laboratories, new scientific methods, knowledge of chemistry and biology give us a much greater potential. But opportunities as little. There are several alternative methods of creating an artificial human. Starting from dummy, endowed with the brain and consciousness, and ending with the restructuring of an existing organism. The choice is wide, but whether the result will always be the right one? This is how you look ...
How should we change the living man, if we create it into something "artificial"? Replace the internal organs, limbs, skin ... All this certainly touches the question of personality. But if so, that would fundamentally change it? Definitely not. human naturalness lies in thinking in the mind, in the brain. Change the brain - change a person. With the electronics we can control the level of hormones, certain nuances of behavior and thus support the former human activity, even in the artificial body. Ultimately, it is possible to replace the hormone stimulation current, and the man even being a cyborg - will be able to "feel".
But what if we replace 50% of the brain artificial neurons? Then, add one more? What feels a person, as a person? Good, bad, okay. Here is what he feels. When we change the tooth with an artificial one, the replacement process is unpleasant to us. But we live in, almost without feeling the implant in the jaw. Just think, we are implanting the skull, close enough to the brain! A little more and we reach it? And that kind of life suits many.
Neuron, implanted in the brain, can be in two statuses: similar to "native" or exceed them. No examination, laboratory or medical institution - will not produce the product themselves in harm. And we are not going to buy something that does not work well.
Artificial man - a superior man. Superior technology, development of science, supported by medicine. The man who has surpassed the others in that it is not afraid to be improved. Anyone who has been a dream come true, to which was. What is the chance that we will see such a man? Huge, very huge. The only question is, Do we have the courage to use it?
And the answer is - it is hidden within us.
