Carboncopies Foundation alongside neuroscience and AI research groups detail a stepwise process for whole brain emulation: high-resolution connectome mapping, dynamic activity recording, computational reconstruction, and software-based simulation to achieve digital continuity of mind.

Key points

  • High-resolution electron microscopy and AI-driven analysis capture connectomes of small and mammalian brains.
  • Functional connectomics integrates structural wiring diagrams with in vivo activity recordings for accurate emulation.
  • Two procedural methods—destructive scan-and-copy and non-destructive gradual replacement—are proposed to transfer human consciousness.

Why it matters: Developing whole brain emulation could redefine life extension and AI, unlocking unprecedented insights into consciousness and transforming neuroscience research.

Q&A

  • What is whole brain emulation?
  • Why is the connectome important?
  • How do scan-and-copy and gradual replacement differ?
  • What technical challenges remain for WBE?
  • Is digital immortality guaranteed?
