Search Search Plan to bring people back from the dead by freezing their brains and then resurrecting them with artificial intelligence The company is developing techniques to take people's brains out and freeze them until they are ready / Getty Artificial intelligence and apps would watch people during their lives — and then use that to bring them back to life 6169789578 Click to follow The Independent Tech A company claims that it is developing technology to bring people back from the dead.
 Humai says that it is developing technology that would allow brains to be frozen and have their information stored, bringing people back using artificial intelligence.
 The technology could be available to the public within the next 30 years, the company claimed.
 The details of how exactly the company intends to bring people back to life are still unclear.
 And as often with such grand claims, it is possible that the people behind the firm are only making them as a hoax or publicity stunt.

 Once the techniques were sufficiently advanced, the frozen brain would then be taken out of its freezer and put into a new body, allowing the person to be brought back to life.
 Before the person dies, the company would use artificial intelligence to study the conversational style and behaviour of their customers.
 That would then be fed into the chip so that the person that was being re-animated would be preserved.
 “We'll first collect extensive data on our members for years prior to their death via various apps we're developing,” founder Josh Bocanegra told PopSci in an interview.
 “After death we'll freeze the brain using cryonics technology.
 When the technology is fully developed we'll implant the brain into an artificial body.
 “The artificial body functions will be controlled with your thoughts by measuring brain waves.
 As the brain ages we'll use nanotechnology to repair and improve cells.
 Cloning technology is going to help with this too.
” The company’s slick website claim that it wants “to bring you back to life after you die”.

 Wellcome Images from the 'doomsday bank' Researchers in the Middle East have asked for seeds including those of wheat, barley and grasses, all of which are chosen because especially resistant to dry conditions.
 It is the first withdrawal from the bank, which was built in 2008.
 Those researchers would normally request the seeds from a bank in Aleppo.
 But that centre has been damaged by the war — while some of its functions continue, and its cold storage still works, it has been unable to provide the seeds that are needed by the rest of the Middle East, as it once did.
 New research has become the first to isolate the particular scent of human death, describing the various chemicals that are emitted by corpses in an attempt to help find them in the future.
 The researchers hope that the findings are the first step towards working on a synthetic smell that could train cadaver dogs to be able to more accurately find human bodies, or to eventually developing electronic devices that can look for the scent themselves.
 Astronomers have captured a black hole eating a star and then sicking a bit of it back up for the first time ever.
 The scientists tracked a star about as big as our sun as it was pulled from its normal path and into that of a supermassive black hole before being eaten up.
 They then saw a high-speed flare get thrust out, escaping from the rim of the black hole.
 Scientists have seen black holes killing and swallowing stars.
 And the jets have been seen before.
But a new study shows the first time that they have captured the hot flare that comes out just afterwards.
 And the flare and then swallowed star have not been linked together before evolutionary divide in North America A British scientist has uncovered the fossil of a dog-sized horned dinosaur that roamed eastern North America up to 100 million years ago.
 The fragment of jaw bone provides evidence of an east-west divide in the evolution of dinosaurs on the North American continent.
 During the Late Cretaceous period, 66 to 100 million years ago, the land mass was split into two continents by a shallow sea.
 This sea, the Western Interior Seaway, ran from the Gulf of Mexico to the Arctic Ocean.
 Dinosaurs living in the western continent, called Laramidia, were similar to those found in Asia Brains cannot be categorised into female and male, according to the first study to look at sex differences in the whole brain.
 Specific parts of the brain do show sex differences, but individual brains rarely have all “male” traits or all “female” traits.
 Some characteristics are more common in women, while some are more common in men, and some are common in both men and women, according to the study than previously thought Life may have come to earth 4.
1 billion years ago, hundreds of millions of years earlier than we knew.
 The discovery, made using graphite that was trapped in ancient crystals, could mean that life began "almost instantaneously" after the Earth was formed.
 The researchers behind it have described the discovery as “a potentially transformational scientific advance”.
 Previously, life on Earth was understood to have begun when the inner solar system was hit by a massive bombardment from space, which also formed the moon's craters Nasa has announced that it has found evidence of flowing water on Mars.
 Scientists have long speculated that Recurring Slope Lineae — or dark patches — on Mars were made up of briny water but the new findings prove that those patches are caused by liquid water, which it has established by finding hydrated salts.
 Earth could be in danger as our galaxy throws out comets that could hurtle towards us and wipe us out, scientists have warned.
 Scientists have previously presumed that we are in a relatively safe period for meteor impacts, which are linked with the journey of our sun and its planets, including Earth, through the Milky Way.
 But some orbits might be more upset than we know, and there is evidence of recent activity, which could mean that we are passing through another meteor shower.
 Showers of meteors periodically pass through the area where the Earth is, as gravitational disturbances upset the Oort Cloud, which is a shell of icy objects on the edge of the solar system.
 They happen on a 26-million year cycle, scientists have said, which coincide with mass extinctions over the last 260-million years Chinese scientists have created genetically-engineered, extra-muscular dogs, after editing the genes of the animals for the first time.
 The scientists create beagles that have double the amount of muscle mass by deleting a certain gene, reports the MIT Technology Review.
 The mutant dogs have “more muscles and are expected to have stronger running ability, which is good for hunting, police (military) applications”, Liangxue Lai, one of the researchers on the project.
 Now the team hope to go on to create other modified dogs, including those that are engineered to have human diseases like muscular dystrophy or Parkinson’s.
 Since dogs’ anatomy is similar to those of humans’, intentionally creating dogs with certain human genetic traits could allow scientists to further understand how they occur Scientists say that the new dinosaur, known as Ugrunaaluk kuukpikensis, “challenges everything we thought about a dinosaur’s physiology”.
 Florida State University professor of biological science Greg Erickson said: “It creates this natural question.
 How did they survive up here?

 This is inaccurate, the reason being that these images are not to scale.
 “We’re using artificial intelligence and nanotechnology to store data of conversational styles, behavioural patterns, thought processes and information about how your body functions from the inside-out,” the site reads.
 “This data will be coded into multiple sensor technologies, which will be built into an artificial body with the brain of a deceased human.
 Using cloning technology, we will restore the brain as it matures.
” The company has five people working together to create the technology, it claims.
 That includes people working on artificial intelligence, “bionics and sensors” and nanotechnology.
