Since different parts of the brain normally serve different functions but if one area becomes damaged sometimes another will take over. This will probably enable to see the commonality between different areas and what makes the difference. Maybe it is made from what senses the areas are connected but then how does the new area if not connected relearn?

We can map the brain of living individuals. This means I can create a copy of myself with all my knowledge and memories and have it represent me. My boss will love it when I work twice as fast. Afterwards it can bring me up to speed, and I will just kill my copy. But my copy knows I have these intensions and will resist. We may need to think about the implications of these kind of things sooner than I expected. I mean, we cannot just map THE human brain. We can map the brain of living individuals.

I love this applicagtion of statistics. It's like finding exo planets without actually seeing them. If we have the scanning techniques, and sufficient computing power, then we can map the human brain. I can't believe there aren't more comments on this world news This is great.
