The specialists of the company Humai said that they were able to develop a unique method that will allow a person to live forever. According to the authors of the new technology, the cryogenic freezing of the brain of the deceased person is at the basis. Scientists offer everyone to "rise again" in a few decades, freeze their brains after death and return to life in a new, artificial body (at this stage, the transplantation of the brain into a new body is impossible, but scientists are sure that in just a couple of decades it will be really).
But in order for a person to become the same in decades, scientists suggest using artificial intelligence. After freezing in the brain, scientists will implant a special chip, which will record all the data on the person. All those wishing to resort to cryo-frosting will be carefully studied before death - style of behavior, habits, thinking, manner of speaking, etc., then after transplantation all this information will be integrated through a chip with a brain and a new body.
The founder of Humai Josh Bokanegra noted that for those wishing to use the service of cryo-cerebration of the brain and the subsequent "resurrection", a special application should be used that was developed to select those who wish to live forever.
He also explained that after death, the human brain will be frozen with the help of the latest cryotechnologies. After the scientists finish all the necessary developments and will be ready to transplant the brain into a new artificial body, a person will be able to return to life. Scientists in their work intend to use also nanotechnology, which will help restore brain cells not only after defrosting, but in the process of natural aging. Experts noted that for their work in this direction, achievements in the field of cloning will be very useful.
A few years ago, scientists have already stated that the human brain can live much longer than its body. According to American researchers, the brain can function normally for 200 years, but human organs refuse much earlier, so they suggest replacing "obsolete" with artificial analogues. Now science is actively working in this direction and the laboratory successfully grows the heart, kidneys and other important organs that can be suitable for human transplantation. Given all the latest scientific achievements, it can be assumed that in just a few decades, artificial organs will be widely used in transplantology, and an artificial body will become not a fantasy, but a reality.
However, do not forget the negative factors that affect the state of our health, for example, the environment. A group of scientists from the United States, conducting their research, said that the brain of a person is extremely adversely affected by harmful emissions of megacities, they not only can trigger a malfunction of the nervous system, but also lead to the development of diseases such as schizophrenia or autism. And given the fact that scientists are proposing for the "eternal" life cryo-frost of the brain, perhaps, more attention should be paid to environmental problems?
