I don't think human brain can be downloaded into a hard drive. The information might be, yes. But is it really what makes us human beings? Our thoughts also depend on our feelings and as long as computer can't feel the world, hard drive is not an appropriate solution for our immortality
Seeing as how fast technology is advancing we could not recognize the world in 50 years. Who knows?
Think the brain still has a ways to go, like figuring out how the brain receives info from the gut.
The way connections are made and where we store info is being broke down but how to fix it is a bit slower. Think 3 years till its tried, maybe 15 years from sucess.

I think it will take much longer to do something like this and possibly never. The human brain is too complicated. Humans will probably destroy the planet before they can get that far.
Well they did managed to map all areas of the brain.
The human mind is starting to be not such a mystery to us.

I personally don't believe it will be possible, but I do wish it would become reality.
In one of the topics here appeared the subject of downloading the human brain into a hard drive in the near future.
Also one of Ray Kurzweil's books was mentioned.
What do you think (feel about) of this?
Will it happen in the next 50 (maximum) years?
Will this be the first step in becoming immortal?
