Yes, it's really fun when you want to make something interesting for you and your friends and somebody who don't understand it thinks that you are not making good thing ) But we do ) Initially we provided a lot of scientific information which was hard to understand as it combined neurohardware and neurosoftware, and decided to start from the prototype as simple as possible. Indeed we are just start-up, but have very good scientific background and experienced team. I'm sure when we will show to investors developed prototype and get investments we will create real blockchain corporation. During propotype development we will explain to the community details of our project step by step. Proof-of-Human protocol will be developed on next stage and will be based on analyzing brainwaves acivity using EEG and special algorythms for confirmation of neuropotenial evaluation by neurocurrency. Anyway the main reason why we are developing RUNEURO project will be explained in our official announcement for news agencies:
The utopian scenarios with its Artificial Intelligence technologies are more real than expected. Human civilization at an increasing speed enters the New Era, where Artificial Intelligence takes more and more impact on our lives. It brings us a higher level of living, a better performance; it provides us with new services and opportunities. However, creating a strong AI includes a wide range of different risks, described by leading scientists like Stephen Hawking and shown in many fantastic films and literature essays.
Scientific development is exponential: the gap between new inventions is shrinking and the utopian technologies are far from being utopian right now. Creating a strong controlled AI is not too early to think about. It may be too late. What we need to do at this very moment is to analyse the risks, draw conclusions and take the necessary actions.
The basic reason for why every single human-being is in the risk zone, regardless of their current wealth level is the absence of “humanized” backing of currencies. Money is used to measure the value of various things, however the most precious thing for human civilization - obviously the human itself is not merged with money in terms of economy. The value of human - human intelligence - is our greatest treasure, still obvious for humans only. We can never be sure it will be obvious for AI. Therefore, AI that will once turn powerful enough to exist on its own may win over businesses, fire people without feeling sorry – simply to save more money, which in terms of logics is a correct decision for economically supereffective AI.
One of the few things that will possibly draw a thick line between robots and humans will be the confirmation of neuropotential of live human being backed by emotions. This very fine balance that humans try to reach - the balance between the rational, logical and irrational, emotional - may turn the greatest value of our species. Can we utilize this difference and even use it to control AI?
Definitely. The answer will be RUNEURO neurointerface with Proof-of-Human (PoH) protocol, which will allow using human brain as the natural source for "ideas mining" with neuropotential value confirmation by decentralized emission of neurocurrency - next generation currency for AI.
ICO of RUNEURO - first neurotechnologies blockchain corporation will be launched on WINGS platform this summer. Meantime for prototype production and starting setting up standard for strong AI RUNEURO wil launch pre-ICO on 27.02.2017
