One Million ARM Cores Linked to Simulate Brain

I thought that all the wine bottles/boxes in her house were empty.
Also if they try to use their ARM Brain to create a cyborg mule.
Would that make it a smart @$$ ?

Get to the choppah!!

wit only 1% of the human brainpower working.. it will most likely being creationist religious.. :-D

Still more processing power than the average red neck. Perhaps we can use this to program a typical red neck brain in order to study their cousin humping behavior.

@archange

take over the world to do what, baby sit a bunch of overachieving (or underachieving depending on your view) primates. And if the goal is eradication then it's far easier to go into hibernate mode for a few hundred years, far less effort and much more efficient to have us remove ourselves from existence, with the added bonus of never having to develop a time machine and all the paradoxical maladies that come with it

probably same reasons why aliens have never bothered to contact us

but i digress.....

Ok, now all we gotta do is centralize that down to certain regions doing certains times, and Wi-Fi code it, and you can finally know what a women is "really" thinking.. Well, Hopefully not of the idea of say "real" mind reading, but still.

Knowing some actually probably data interest of some magnitude of any amount of processing is more known then not, right?

Dan, and I loved Amy's music so much before her Jail stint...

Yet another step closer to Skynet...

i'm gonna start manufacturing emp guns, ya know, just in case...

A lot of people seem to only use 1% of their brain anyway so it could be pretty realistic. If it becomes self-aware it'll probably be a Mormon.

We will achieve immortality thanks to this one day.

Would you really want to live your life knowing that it will never end?

Hopefully this will bring enough of an understanding of the brain to make it possible to have cures/treatments for neurological diseases instead of companies passing mood altering drugs as "control medicines" for depression and the like.

Can we also have that in Mexican?

really? such a waste of money....the British economy is going under, yet they can afford to do this kind of crap...this really boggles my mind...such stupidity

get a life...wow is for little girls with pimples on their butts...sad but true

My bad, I thought you said immorality. We have already achieved that.

It would be a really long distance call. He died June 3 2011.

130 nm ?!? Intel stopped using that in 2004! For that amount of money, they could have just used x86 cores (AMD Magny Cours or Intel E7 Xeon) or a rack of Nvidia Tesla servers and gotten way more performance.

Just because you're simulating a large # of neurons doesn't mean you actually need a lot of cores. It's the total amount of processing power that counts.

That's some intense work there.

By the way, might want to fix Prof. Furbar's name in the last sentence. It's fubar.
