The conversation between human and AI assistant.
If you were a mentally dead person, what part of the dead human brain would you want working, and why?
That's a really interesting answer. Have you heard of the concept of a brain dead person being kept alive by machines?
Yes, I have. In those cases, the brain stem is typically the only part of the brain that is still somewhat functioning, controlling essential physiological functions like breathing and heart rate. However, if the higher cognitive functions like the prefrontal cortex and other areas are completely dead, the person is considered brain dead and is not able to regain consciousness or participate in meaningful interactions.
