Organic computers, CPU's that grow and adapt.... :-)

I thought I would blabber a bit... This is for the people who like to ask
questions.. and have a curious mind... :-)

Moore claimed recently that CPU power will reach a barrier in 10-15 years.
Many of you may be aware of "moores law" that he had stated that every 24
months the power of CPU's (the amount of calculations they would be able to
do) would double.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moore's_law
This barrier Moore says now, would be true if we continue our path in this
direction of technology, which are microchips.
The problems arise are clearly about physics. Transistors are in fact made
of matter, thus atoms,
and through them passes the electric signal that is electromagnetic energy
with the speed of C (light speed). Pushing these chips to go faster produces
more heat, thus we have reached a speed limit of modern CPU at around 5 GHz
and even that is with super cooling.
Many talk about molecular computers or even quantum computers, that seem
very interesting...

But there is another way, the way nature works. If one studies the brain you
will see that it gets its processing power out of slow components (nerve
cells) that however have many connections with each other. Each neuron has
thousands of connections (called dendrites) with others, and all these
together form a "web" or vast cluster.
The number of "possible" connections of these neurons, in each human brain
is more than all the atoms of all the matter in the whole universe. This is
of course the number of POSSIBLE connections and not the true number of
connections in any given time. This is because the brain is not static,
rather it has "brain plasticity" the ability to adapt and learn and change
in real time.

It is my opinion that the new era of computers must follow the structure of
the brain if they want to achieve more processing power. And indeed piece of
the human brain the size of a dime, has more processing power than all the
computers in the world put together.

You may ask if so much power is in one brain why are some people so
stupid?..I believe differetly. Each person has infinite POTENTIAL. The
reason why this is not unleashed is a different matter. Why? The answer to
this is not simple and I wont get into that now.. because we are talking
about computers here not humans.

There is another problem here though... what software would be able to
handle this new hardware even if we had it? It will not be a digital
computer.. rather it would be a combination of digital and analog
computer... and this is so new that its hard for people to write code that
would be able to put these neuron nets into function.
There is good news. Single chip CPU are things of the past now. We have 4
core CPU now, and Intel has predicted that in 5 years we will have more than
200 cpu per chip.
The OS's and programs are NOT built to handle multi CPU very well. In fact
Vista stinks at it big time. Linux is far better .. MS knows this and is
working on this problem because its in our near future.

So the next generation of programs and OS will be able to handle multi core
CPU better, and that's much like having many nerve cells as cluster in a
small electronic brain. Its a start.

A new generation of robotic scientists now claim that we will have robots
and AI (artificial intelligent computers) that will be comparable to humans
in only 20 years.
I think this is obtainable. Computing power will be infinite very soon....
but it will need some out of the box thinking.

What would this new type of computers be like?

There is a way... for infinity in everything. Infinite bandwidth, processing
power, memory storage, and energy. I believe that it is within the abilty
for humans to reach infinity.

Are you flexible enough to imagine how this would be possible? I know it is
possible.. im just fathoming its ramifications.

All that typing ... yet nothing got said.

Tiberius, you a politician ? or a teacher ?

you are an imposter of yourself...

another clue that shows this.. is that you 2 always post simutainiously...
You both are doris..

For example if you doris posts as On the Bridge (the theoretically real one)
at 2
pm your other enemy doris as On the Bridge fake or spanky shows up right
after you
do..

You can see that there is no lag between the first poster and the fake
one... if there was that would show that you are really 2 different people
but you are not. 2 people cant be online all the time ...

I have not seen a post from one of you idiots and not a reply from the other
idiot

thus you are only one and the same BIG idiot

its not about what I say, its about what I make you think about.
Oh you need a brain to do that.

I thought nothing about it.
It was quite dull.
Whatever happens with 'puters, will happen.
Its just a tool.
Though, regardless of the technology ... the dweebs developing it will no
doubt miss tons of bugs ... simple current technology barely works.

you dont understand. Computers will become smarter than humans in our
lifetime.

ok.. computers are already smarter than you.. but Im talking about normal
humans here.

Yes, and Rocks will become smarter than "On the Bridge" within weeks

Wrong.
I am smarter.
Years ago, we had a house fire....I got out.
PC got melted.

Yeah, real smart computer

I like to read a bit of blabber. Then again, I occasionally watch soaps.
Unless one does indeed *consider* the brain to be a quantum computer, this
particular chunk of blabber is self-evidently nonsense (even without the
proviso). Then again, why do I take the time to respond?
