Blue Brain

The document discusses the Blue Brain project, which aims to build a computer model of the human brain. It describes how the Blue Gene supercomputer was used to power the virtual brain simulation. The simulation receives sensory input, integrates the information, and provides motor output, functioning similarly to a natural brain. Nanobots could potentially scan a human brain at the cellular level and upload the brain's data and connections into a computer simulation of the virtual brain. The advantages include using deceased people's intelligence and mapping animal thought. Disadvantages include potential addiction to the technology and security risks if the brain data is hacked.

Introduction
 Human brain, the most valuable creation of God, the man is called
intelligent because of the Brain

 Blue Brain is the name of the world’s first virtual brain

 Blue gene supercomputer constructed by IBM(INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS


MACHINE) was a machine first used by Blue Brain Project and then a term
Blue Brain was introduced

 Virtual brain can function as brain, can take decision , can respond ,can
keep things in memory
Introduction cont.

 Aims to build a full computer model of a


functioning brain to simulate drug treatments or
any other brain related problems
 The core of Blue Brain is powered by Artificial
Intelligence
Functioning of Human
Brain

Sensory input- Receiving input such as


sound ,image, etc through sensory cell
Integration- It is like the brain figuring out what it
gets by looking at the states of its neurons.
Motor input- Receiving of electric responses from
the brain to perform any action
Brain Simulation

Natural Brain
Stimulated Brain
 Input - through the natural neuron
• Input - through silicon chip or artificial
 Interpretation - by a set of bits neuron
in the set of register
• Interpretation - by different states of
 Output - through the natural neurons in the brain
neuron
• Output - through the silicon chip
 Memory - through permanent
states of neuron • Memory - through secondary memory

 Processing - through arithmetic • Processing - through arithmetic and


and logical calculations logical calculation and artificial intelligence

Working of Blue Brain

 Uploading human brain:


The uploading is possible by the use of small
robots known as the nanobots
These robots are small enough to travel through
out human circulatory system
Traveling into the spine and brain, nanobots are
able to monitor the activity and structure of
human central nervous system
Working of Blue Brain
Nanobots are able to provide an interface with
computer that is as close as human mind
Nanobots could also carefully scan the structure
of human brain, providing a complete readout of
the connection.
This information, when entered into a computer,
could then continue to function as human.
Thus the data stored in the entire brain will be
uploaded into the computer.
Advantage

 Decision can be made without human intervention


 Intelligent brain of a person can be used, even
after death of a person
 Thought of animals can also be mapped
 Even deaf can hear via direct serve simulation
 Madness of a person can also be removed by
downloading the content of the brain.
Disadvantage

 A person can become computer addicted


 Technical knowledge can be hacked by others and
that can be used against us
 People can explore new technology that can prove
to be critical threat
Conclusion

 Blue Brain can be used for the treatment of brain


diseases
 Blue Brain will search for insights into how human
beings think and remember
 Blue Brain offers a better understanding of human
consciousness
 It is a progress towards building thinking
machines
