The long term project objective is to develop a cortex machine brain, demonstrating human-to-machine brain transfer, in particular to take some relatively simple characteristics of a human brain and transfer portions to the machine brain, whereby human traits could be given greater life longevity, leading towards immortality.
The project has spun a number of fascinating projects in neural science and what seems like science fiction even though it's science fact.
This is possibly one of few times where two eras exist simultaneously running at the same time.
