Maybe you can upload knowledge, but wisdom is a different thing entirely.

“Maybe you can upload knowledge, but wisdom is a different thing entirely.”

Totally agree with you.

I’ve been studying memory for 30 years and have studied and worked with top neuroscientists specializing on this subject.

I asked Eric Kandell, the scientist at Columbia University who received the Nobel Prize for his research on the biochemistry of memory storage “Where are stored memories located?” And he replied “in the synapses of the brain.”

Your stored memories are no more located in the brain than the music you hear from a radio is stored in the radio.

This research article is merely about increasing focus or attention, a function of the thalamus that does the input priority sort.
