Joey's Unproven Theory of Heroes Reality

A while back I was reading Scientific American Report while taking a dump in the toilet and an article really light up a bulb in my head. The article that I read, had nothing to do with this blog entry, but with a little sprinkle of my silly imagination, and Eureka....behold Joey's Unproven Theory of Heroes Reality.

My unproven theory states that by 2100 man will start to evolve to be super humans with abilities far beyond what we are capable today. Man will take an image of god, being more perfect beings with abilities far beyond our ancestors. I'm sure all of you have seen the famous tv series Heroes. Where some genetic anamoly in the human race are creating exceptional beings with abilities to fly, telekinesis, time and space manipulation, spontaneous freezing and combustion, mind control, mind reading, midas touch, electromagnetic and etc. Well, I'm not saying that we will reach these abilities so soon, but may infact somehow reach closely to these abilities and evolve slowly through time.

I came to this theory with a few insights from the article "Rise of The Robots" by Hans Moravec in Scientific American Reports, May 6, 2008. Typically, scientist believe that computers maybe fast enough to do computation as fast as our synaptic nervous tissue are able to create impulses. Our nervous tissue is what creates our brain where all our memory and ability to think occur. A monkey's intelligence for example is equivalent to 5 million MIPS(Millions Instructions per second). A computer with this speed, can surely replace some of the people working in the government sector...hehehe. But how much speed do we need to replace human beings. In another article, "The Coming Merging of Mind and Machine", Scientific American Reports May 6, 2008 predicts that it takes 10 to the power of 15 to have a processing speed of a human brain. If we are able to download a human's brain into a computer of this speed, we may also say that we have already made a computer conscious. By 2060, the typical computer would have a processing speed of all the human brains combined in the world.

If this is true, computers are able to create robots with brain power much more than all the professors exist in the world. Well educated robots may function as scientist working diligently, cheaply, rapidly and increasingly effectively will ensure that most of what science knows in 2050 will have been discovered by our own artificial progeny.
This sounds like a science fiction story, but it is not impossible. Once we all thought that flying to the moon is impossible. By 2060 we may become gods by creating our own Adam and Eve and create a new generation of a robot race.

It won't be long when we will have to compete with our own creation for survival at work, sports, and scientific findings. It won't be long when our own creation will eventually choose to be closer to their creators, to follow the image of their god, which is humans. They will create biologically advance biocybernatic beings that far exceed the robots that we create.

By 2100, humans will soon have to compete with this super robot beings. And the human race may even perish from the face of earth where we are known as gods....but only exist as incorrect historical data like the idea we have about Zeus, Aries, and what not. But the human race are not as fragile as we think. We are very flexible and we have the ability to evolve. I don't think we will go away so easily. It is said that the human race only uses 5% of their brain's potential. In fact, some in my work place, even uses much less than 5%...hehehe. So there is another 95% of untap power which we have not evolved yet. According to Darwin theory of evolution, a process of natural selection is what makes monkeys evolve into human beings. Now, there have been a lot of arguments here, but we shall not dwell on it today. But, if this theory is true, the instability of the norm, where human's are complacent, will have to change. Natural selection can occur again, and only the smartest and strongest human beings will survive. And slowly but surely, genetic contruction of a more perfect being will evolve, slowly but surely. The evolve human being will use much more percentage of their brain. One that would have abilities to maybe to do computation as fast as machines, one that are capable to run faster than a cheetah. There is no telling what new abilities we may able to discover by tapping more potential of our brain. Maybe telekinesis, time and space manipulation or even spontaneous combustion....

Will heroes become a reality? We can only wait till 2100 to prove Joey's Unproven Theory of Heroes Reality.
