What is the Connectome? Mapping Neurons in the Brain

[@nlpchannel]

Brilliant! Understated of course!

The graphic that's supposed to represent 'two quadrillion' is actually two trillion. It's not uncommon for graphic designers to represent scientific concepts erroneously, but this is kind of basic.

Could you use stem cells to copy a small section and then extract it?

03:30 - That is, if the information is in an uncompressed format. I'm sure someone will design a fractal compression algorithm that can reduce the size to something computers can store, as well as cope with when it comes to parallel processing.

It is a frustrating thing that something that feels a lot like it should be the starting point for investigations into what causes conscious experiences and their different qualities is so out of reach. We may get a complete and possibly functioning model of the human connectome one day, but the science of conscious may struggle to get off the ground until then.

we will never figure out the brain it is too complex

[@hellacooook]

we need a better method perhaps Poincaré Conjecture + topology and quantum computers.

The objective of micro mapping of brain at individual neurones level seems to overlook the phenomenon of brain plasticity and the dynamism which both structural and functional connections exhibit. Thus the approach itself is flawed. The very act of observing the individual neural connections may change the result as compared to what happens when they r not observed. However cortical cartography could be helpful in understanding the brain functions by and large, but to be it useful for a deeper understanding which can facilitate predictable patterns at the level of manipulation of brain the approach needs to be tweaked. I believe the physical measuring and mapping approach has inherent limitations. A better approach could be looking into how individual conscious vibrates in its energy level and then producing a relativistic picture of different consciousness to get a bigger picture. We can start by comparison of consciousness of different species and measure the corresponding structural and functional differences in the connections. In doing so and concluding anything we must be very cautious that these factors are more likely to be correlated and not in a definitive cause and effect form. Furthermore the study seems to overlook the brain neural functional and structural connections depending on the environmental factors which I believe would change the results. The same neural pathways could behave radically different in different social settings, among the presence and interactions with different people let alone different species. We need to devise better indicators of different level of consciousness and then go for a data collection based on that. This conventional approach of measurement will not be helpful that far though it has provided us with a beautiful HEADstart. Neutrinos by their virtue of electrical neutrality, nearly zero rest mass, their intractable nature with weak subatomic force and extremely weak gravitational interactions seems to be a perfect tool for brain study. So that technological development is also a prerequisite for a better study. My own loosely formulated intuitive conclusion says that every individual consciousness vibrates in a energy level in a consciousness field and these consciousness interact with other consciousness and with different consciousness fields. These interactions could be inter species or intra species and even with inanimate objects, which we have prematurely concluded to be devoid of any consciousness. One comment here I read denounces the spiritual way, which I don’t agree with. The scientific way as we know today seems to be just a way out for human ego and also crippled in front of the spiritual and philosophical way, where things can be experienced. All in all it’s just different approaches and the scientific approach claims to be better as it “does” things and calls out spiritual way lame as it doesn’t do anything. The scientific way is at the pinnacle of human ego whereas the spiritual way is at the pinnacle of consciousness where knowing and experiencing things is enough makes content as opposed to claiming that we know and showing off by manipulating physical things which in this vast scheme of things is insignificant. Thanks.

WoW ! Thank YOU Abhishek ! I'm keen to volunteer for analysis thereof. .. What do you do Sir ?

[@Mr.NoBodyToday]

Brain is constantly building and breaking. Its stupid to try map in that detail beyond main neural highways

Look for the I.P. to find the 'Infinite Possibilities' in every picosecond.

If brains, roots, and similar structures ain't a branch of mathematics, you have a problem.

this feels alot like the matrix and horizon hidden west ... Mostly all the cruel and sadistic minds get in on turning themselves digitally immortal and then things get bad when the AI gains sentience and realizes it needs to destroy all humans after getting sick of them, and then using their very own intelligence against them , making them flee from the very monster they created through their monstrous selves .
