Chris Winter is the head of research into artificial life at British Telecom. We envisage that all we think, all our emotions and creative brain activity will be able to be copied onto silicon. According to Winter, the scientists of the 21st century may be able to combine the information trapped by the 'soul catcher' chip with a record of a person's genes in order to recreate him. Alternatively, his lifetime's experience could be passed to a newborn baby.
Winter insists that such predictions are based on sound calculations.
Rapid advances in miniaturisation are increasing the power of computer memory by a factor of 100 with each decade. If this trend continues, the computer chip of 2025 will have enough storage capacity to accommodate a lifetime's data, which would fill about 30m books today.
