Anisotropy, Asymmetry and Disorderness Physical Immortality Systems Human Memory Storing and Mind Mimicking

ORAL

Abstract

Longevity, time travel, and immortality are often regarded as ultimate goals of physics among the general audience or popular culture, especially through the lenses of Maxwell’s demon and Shannon’s entropy, both of which imply the physical and informational complexity involved in the preservation of mind and memory.

Radical pathways are proposed by both fiction and science: using the 2nd law of thermodynamics and general relativity to enable space–time displacement for partial or entire organ preservation; cryogenic techniques with non-crystalline refrigeration to maintain biological integrity; and the decoding, storage, and functional emulation of memory and cognition on artificial substrates.

Recent advances in vector-embedding and brain–machine interfaces have further enabled new ways of rethinking permanent memory storage and the functional replication of human consciousness. We will discuss how anisotropy, asymmetry, and disorderness can be potentially used in human memory storing and mind mimicking in the future. The possible simulation on linearity and non-linearity logics corresponding to the function of cerebral cortex will be discussed, as well as the greedy algorithm, the feedback and the comparison cognitive mechanisms corresponding to the cerebral medulla.
