What I do
I am a late-onset scientist with the sole intent of fostering the development (before retirement) of a novel brain-tissue replication chip technology for application in artificial general intelligence/robots and human implants. The chip technology facilitates natural learning of the kind biology uses to adapt to novelty.
Interests
Artificial general intelligence, the scientific study of consciousness, intelligence, cognition, molecular dynamics, biophysics, electrodynamics, scientific method, pattern theory, cellular automata, information theory, cell biology, empirical and theoretical neuroscience, machine consciousness.
Projects
My only science mission is to create artificial general intelligence (machine, inorganic intelligence) that learns like humans learn.
Currently that goal requires (1) a general review of the laws of electromagnetism as applied to brain material and (2) experimental simulation and fabrication work to establish the basis of a chip that inorganically replicates the biolectromagnetism behind the adaptive signalling system used by the brain. Such a chip has never been attempted before.
