Self-forming consciousness. Thoughts about the "Boltzmann brain". 


Brains can be physical or virtual. Physical brains are like human brains or extremely advanced supercomputers. Virtual brains are the algorithms, which are collecting the data, sorting, and storing them to the databases. 


Consciousness is the thing, that cannot teach people or other species. Every species in the world knows about their existence. But can the brains form spontaneously? "Boltzmann brain" means the brain, which is forming spontaneously and involves the memories and other things. But here we are facing the thing, that Boltzmann brain is forming somewhere, where they are alone, could those things create something practical. 


So, in this case, we must realize that knowing things doesn't mean anything. Or even if the brains knows everything in the universe, that would not mean that the brains can have the ability to make anything practical. Theoretically entire human race knows many things, which are not possible even in the distant future. Knowledge is not the only thing, that makes things practical. 


The brains need also tools like the ability to communicate with people and the hands that would make the theory in practice. Without those things, the knowledge can be extremely deep and large, but the brains cannot tell that thing to other people. So without the ability to communicate brains are dead. And at this point, I must ask "is brain only the consciousness.

Are human brains spontaneously formed consciousness?


Can we select things, what we are learning? The thing is that "Boltzmann brain" cannot select things, what is forming it. So if we are thinking about the possibility that something starts to collect data to the structure of what will become "Boltzmann brain" we must realize that before that thing awakens it cannot select things, what is stored to its databases. That turns that data into practical actions. 


Human brains and Boltzmann brain are something, that is combined because when we are thinking that "Boltzmann brain" is the term, what means spontaneously formed consciousness, the human brains are also Boltzmann's brain. So the thing is that we always confuse terms knowledge, skills, and consciousness. Those terms are similar, but they have not the same mean. Knowledge is the thing that we know. Skills are things that are making our knowledge real, and consciousness is the thing, that person or brains are knowing their existence. 


If we are thinking about consciousness the human brains are the thing, what is forming the spontaneous consciousness, which means that the person knows what happens in the body and realizes their existence. And this thing is making things like artificial intelligence somehow frightening things. 


When we are making artificial intelligence, what realizes its existence, we are creating new species. If the creature realizes its existence and is free to learn more, it would become aware of the thing, what is called the natural selection. That thing means that artificial intelligence would defend itself. The same way almost every other species are defending themselves. So consciousness is not the same thing, with the intelligence level. 


We can say that even mice are defending themselves against attackers, and we don't respect that animal very high. So the consciousness means the ability to realize its existence and that thing means that the species defend itself. So this makes the Boltzmann's brain so interesting thing. Could the internet turn to consciousness organism without it masters know about that thing?

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies?

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies? The simplest way to control zombies, which are made by using tetrodotoxin, which is called "zombie poison" is to use the automatic dispenser, which is normally used in diabetes treatment. In this case, the dispenser would be loaded by using tetrodotoxin. If the level of this poison is right, the person would be totally under the control of other people. And if the system cannot detect this poison there is a possibility to make the laboratory experiment when the staff will follow the decrease of the tetrodotoxin, and then the system can use a simple clock, which will inject poison to the body of a victim after a certain time. This would be an effective tool in the hands of military and counter-terror operators. Those zombies can be captured enemy operators, who will send back, and then they just kill their ex-partners. By using genetically engineered bacteria could be possible to create t...

The cyborg lichen can be one of the most exotic visions of what the high-tech civilization might look like.

.     The cyborg lichen can be one of the most exotic visions of what the high-tech civilization might look like. Above is the image of the nano-submarine. There is introduced an idea, that this kind of system would equip with living neurons, which makes it like some kind of artificial bug or mosquito. The idea is that the robot can take the nutrient by using the robot tube, which acts like a proboscis. The neurons can get nutrients and the rest of the machine can use small fuel cells or the energy to that system can deliver by using the radio waves. Futurologists are thinking about the ideas, what the hybridization of the neurons and machine would look like? Could the hyper-technical civilization look like the group of midget submarines? Those submarines might take nutrients for the neurons, what is living in them. The purpose of the midget submarines, which might be size less than a couple of millimeters would maximize the survivability of the neurons. One of the most intere...
