Neuroscience: In order for "mind-uploading" to happen, which parts of the brain need to be hooked up to "electrodes"?
That sounds complicated. Is it dangerous to attach electrodes to the brain?
Any invasive procedure carries a certain level of risk, but neurosurgeons perform the procedure with the goal of minimizing risks as much as possible. The benefits of using electrodes to study the brain and potentially even develop mind-uploading technology could be incredibly valuable, so researchers are taking cautious steps to move forward in this area.
