Una nueva teoría sobre la conciencia y el futuro de los estudios de nuestra mente. Por primera vez en la historia, gracias a escáneres de alta tecnología diseñados por físicos, se han desvelado secretos del cerebro, y lo que un día fuera territorio de la ciencia ficción, se ha convertido en una asombrosa realidad. Grabación de recuerdos, telepatía, vídeos de nuestros sueños, control de la mente, avatares y telequinesia: todo esto no solo es posible, sino que ya existe. El futuro de nuestra mente es el relato riguroso y fascinante de las investigaciones que se llevan a cabo en los laboratorios más importantes del mundo, todas basadas en los últimos avances en neurociencia y física. Algún día podríamos llegar a tener una «pastilla inteligente» que incrementara nuestro conocimiento; podríamos cargar nuestro cerebro en un ordenador, neurona a neurona; mandar nuestros pensamientos y nuestras emociones de un lugar a otro del mundo a través de una «internet de la mente»; controlar ordenadores y robots con el pensamiento; y tal vez rebasar los límites de la inmortalidad. En esta extraordinaria exploración de las fronteras de la neurociencia, Michio Kaku plantea cuestiones que desafiarán a los científicos del futuro, ofrece una nueva perspectiva de las enfermedades mentales y la inteligencia artificial y presenta un nuevo modo de pensar en la mente. La crítica ha dicho... «En un viaje revelador a través de la mente, el físico teórico Michio Kaku explora reinos fantásticos de la ciencia ficción que pronto podrían convertirse en nuestra realidad.» Publishers Weekly «Kaku centra su atención en la mente humana y consigue resultados sorprendentes... La telepatía ya no es una fantasía desde que los escáneres pueden detectar, de forma rudimentaria, que está pensando un sujeto, y la genética y la bioquímica permiten a los investigadores alterar los recuerdos e incrementar la inteligencia de los animales.» Kirkus Reviews «Una experiencia extraordinaria que te abrirá la mente.» Booklist

Michio Kaku, the New York Times bestselling author of Physics of the Impossible and Physics of the Future tackles the most fascinating and complex object in the known universe: the human brain. The Future of the Mind brings a topic that once belonged solely to the province of science fiction into a startling new reality. This scientific tour de force unveils the astonishing research being done in top laboratories around the world—all based on the latest advancements in neuroscience and physics—including recent experiments in telepathy, mind control, avatars, telekinesis, and recording memories and dreams. The Future of the Mind is an extraordinary, mind-boggling exploration of the frontiers of neuroscience. Dr. Kaku looks toward the day when we may achieve the ability to upload the human brain to a computer, neuron for neuron; project thoughts and emotions around the world on a brain-net; take a “smart pill” to enhance cognition; send our consciousness across the universe; and push the very limits of immortality.

Greek philosophers built great discussions about reality, which are still current in our times and still inspire today's great thinkers. From mathematical teachings by Pythagoras, encompassing Plato's and Aristotle's ideas, these great discussions have been essential for our present intelectual development. Today, however, this role has been adopted by a new class of visionaries. Brought together by this new Platonic Academy based in Stanford University; devoted to proving and making use of the supremacy of numbers and mathematics in the digital world; intent on finding the new Holy Grail embodied in the perfect algorithm, present time's entrepreneurs of new technologies have radically transformed, for good or otherwise, the world as we know it. Ulrich Richter Morales delves deep into the legacy – sometimes clear, sometimes mystical and esoteric – of the Pythagoreans in their diverse historical incarnations. He particularly emphasizes their dominant role in these digital times, while he introduces a debate regarding the sort of machines we ought to develop. Elon Musk, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, among others, are declared heirs of the Mathematician from Samos and, always engrossed in polemic discussions, they are inseparable from our concept of how the world works. Getting to know them as persons and as thinkers is a way to better understand modern day life and our role as citizens, in the unstable, volatile grounds we tread on today.

"Humans may not be Earth's most intelligent beings for much longer: the world champions of chess, Go, and Jeopardy! are now all AIs. Given the rapid pace of progress in AI, many predict that it could advance to human-level intelligence within the next several decades. From there, it could quickly outpace human intelligence. What do these developments mean for the future of the mind? In Artificial You, Susan Schneider says that it is inevitable that AI will take intelligence in new directions, but urges that it is up to us to carve out a sensible path forward. As AI technology turns inward, reshaping the brain, as well as outward, potentially creating machine minds, it is crucial to beware. Homo sapiens, as mind designers, will be playing with "tools" they do not understand how to use: the self, the mind, and consciousness. Schneider argues that an insufficient grasp of the nature of these entities could undermine the use of AI and brain enhancement technology, bringing about the demise or suffering of conscious beings. To flourish, we must grasp the philosophical issues lying beneath the algorithms. At the heart of her exploration is a sober-minded discussion of what AI can truly achieve: Can robots really be conscious? Can we merge with AI, as tech leaders like Elon Musk and Ray Kurzweil suggest? Is the mind just a program? Examining these thorny issues, Schneider proposes ways we can test for machine consciousness, questions whether consciousness is an unavoidable byproduct of sophisticated intelligence, and considers the overall dangers of creating machine minds."--Provided by publisher.
