How close are we to uploading our minds?

A synapse is:

• A gap between two neurons

• The contact through which two neurons communicate

• Sometimes inhibitory and sometimes excitatory

• All of the above

To scan a brain well enough to copy it artificially would probably require a resolution of

• a millimeter

• a hundredth of a millimeter

• a thousandth of a millimeter

• much less than a thousands of a millimeter

The connectome is:

• The connective tissue in the brain

• The connections of a neuron

• The pattern of connections between neurons in the brain

• The wiring of an artificial neural network

The brain contains about how many neurons?

• 23 million

• 110 million

• 1 billion

• 86 billion

Artificial neural networks are

• Far from a practical technology

• Just beginning to be built by engineers

• Already a common part of our everyday technology
