At this time, even Xu You himself didn't think of a very good direction.

And this kind of subject, there was not much technology to support it before, and it only appeared in some science fiction novels and science fiction movies. These plots lacking theoretical support do not have much reference value.

Therefore, Xu You wanted to find these few of his most trusted partners to discuss the direction of research together.

After listening to Xu You's words, everyone fell into deep thought for a while, and did not rush to speak.

After a while, Lin Shi was the first to raise her hand and speak:

"I think we can start with a small white mouse and find a way to simulate the neurons of the small white mouse through a computer to see if a similar structure can be edited in the computer. Next, try to use a brain-computer interface similar to the brain-computer interface. Connect with the computer. Finally, go to the experiment of the human brain..."

Lin Shi's idea is somewhat similar to the procedures of various medical experiments before, and it can be seen that Lin Shi has indeed put a lot of effort into it.

Xu You nodded slightly after listening, and said:

"There is nothing wrong with the general direction, but some details are missing. For example, what kind of method is used to simulate, what effect needs to be achieved in the end, etc..."

At this time, Lou Song said:

"This kind of thinking sounds a lot like using artificial intelligence to simulate the human brain. The two ways of thinking are different. Even if a computer perfectly simulates a person's consciousness, it is difficult to make the uploaded consciousness , to think and do activities like humans?"

"Lou Song, you are right. According to the current technology, it is really difficult for artificial intelligence to think completely in accordance with human habits. But the result I want to achieve is more to transfer the uploaded consciousness to the It can be done on another living body. The computer hardware here only serves as a storage.”

Hearing what Xu You said, Lou Song immediately understood.

Lu Zhiyao also added an explanation after hearing the words: "Probably like time travel in online novels. The uploaded consciousness can be transferred to other bodies, and can also be transferred to your own body again. Of course, it is not only Memories only, including all other details of brain neurons..."

After some discussion, several people have determined a rough research plan.

At this moment, there was a knock on the office door.

"Come in!"

Following Xu You's consent, Cui Ying opened the door of the office.

"Teacher Xu, there is something I want to report to you."

Cui Ying has already completed the task Xu You assigned to Cui Ying in the shortest possible time.

It's just that Cui Ying is not sure whether this matter can be said directly in front of so many people.

"Teacher Cui, if I just told you about your laboratory, you can just say it here."

"Okay. Teacher Xu, I have already communicated about the laboratory. The school is arranging people to clean up the laboratory and prepare the instruments. It is expected that they can enter the laboratory for experiments tomorrow morning."

Hearing this news, Xu You and the others showed joyful expressions.

Xu You was very satisfied with Cui Ying's ability to handle affairs, and this speed was even much faster than Xu You expected.

Of course, this was largely due to Xu You's very high status.

When the school knew that Xu You wanted a laboratory, it immediately gave the highest priority and arranged the matter in the fastest time.

Early the next morning, several people came to the laboratory and began preparations for the experiment.

Of course, Xu You and several of his partners were not the only ones participating in this experiment, and several other industry experts were also invited.

At the beginning of the project, according to the general plan proposed by Lin Shi, we first studied the brain neurons of mice.

The mouse looks like a low-intelligence animal, but its neurons are actually very complicated.

Xu You conservatively estimated that if he wanted to use a computer to store all the neuron data of the mouse, it would take up about one terabyte of space.

Of course, this is just a computer simulation of these neurons without any complex operations.

The complexity of human neurons is much higher than that of mice. In other words, if you want to store human "consciousness" in a computer, you need to occupy an astronomical amount of space.

Fortunately, with the powerful helper of quantum computers, as long as the research direction is determined, many problems can be solved by quantum computers.

After a period of experiments, we have successfully studied the "consciousness uploading" technology of the mouse, which can upload the consciousness of the mouse to the computer and copy it to another mouse.

And the other mouse that was transplanted into the new "consciousness" seemed to have been taken away, and its various behaviors and habits were very similar to the previous mouse.

However, because there are many differences in the bodies of the two mice, there are still some differences in the specific details of their behavior.

Theoretically, as long as the bodies of the two mice are exactly the same, then a complete copy can be achieved.

In the following time, Xu You contacted Gao Mi again, and asked Gao Mi to cultivate some mice that were exactly the same as the main body through the technology of totipotent stem cells.

After changing to the same mice, and then carrying out the experiments of "consciousness uploading" and "consciousness copying", the experimental structure surprised everyone.

These mice showed almost exactly the same behavior habits, so that everyone could not even tell the difference between them.

The success of this experiment marks another milestone in the progress of human beings in the field of consciousness uploading.

The subsequent research work is to transition to the study of the human body.

This time, Xu You and Lu Zhiyao will be the first batch of researchers, and the project team needs to copy their brain neurons to the computer.

From small mice to humans, the complexity of neurons has increased by hundreds of millions of times. For this reason, the project team specially prepared a large number of hard drives to accommodate this massive amount of data.

It's just that after the consciousness is successfully uploaded, the next consciousness replication work cannot be carried out for a while.

After all, when the human body is implanted with a new consciousness, it seems to be taken away, and the memory of the previous body will disappear.

The experiment of copying one's own body cannot be carried out without special circumstances.

Otherwise, there will be some ethical issues.
