The British "Independent" reported on the 14th that researchers have calculated the memory capacity of the human brain for the first time and discovered the human brain's ability in this area. More than any computer. Those who predicted that computers would be more capable than the human brain have been proven absolutely wrong.

It is reported that the scientists who published the above calculation results in the journal "Brain and Mind" said that although the memory capacity of the largest computer is 1,000,000,000,000 bytes (10 12 times, that is, square), the number of bytes of the human brain's memory capacity is as large as 10 followed by 8432 zeros. Researchers said that memory is the basis of natural intelligence, and the memory capacity of the human brain is still a mystery because no one can build a suitable computing model to measure it. The number of neurons in the human brain is known to be approximately 100 billion, and many analysts have based this idea on the idea that computers will soon surpass the human brain. But the researchers are not limited to this perspective. They used a series of algorithms to calculate the total amount of memory in the human brain, including the huge number of different neural networks. This discovery may change the way computers are designed. In the future, computers may not increase bytes, but imitate the human brain, especially paying more attention to neural networks.

The human brain is composed of hundreds of billions of cells, has a huge storage capacity, and can receive more than ten information per second. information. A unit of information is called a bit, which is roughly equivalent to a word. The capacity of the human brain is 100 billion bits, which is still a relatively conservative estimate. How big are these 100 billion bits? It can hold the contents of all libraries around the world. What's more, humans also have subconscious minds, with many subtle feelings and impressions that are difficult to express in words. In fact, the amount of information that an average person can express is only the peak of a huge iceberg exposed from the sea. Modern scientific research shows that great scientists like Einstein only used one-third of the functions of their brains, while ordinary people use even less, and most of their brain cells are still in an "unemployed" state. Moreover, the human brain is different from a machine. It will wear out after being used for a long time. Instead, the more it is used, the better it becomes. Just like someone learning a foreign language, once they have mastered one or two foreign languages, it will be much easier to learn the third and fourth languages.

Relevant articles published in newspapers and periodicals of the former Soviet Union said: "A series of latest research results in anthropology, psychology, logic, sociology and physiology prove that human potential is huge. Contemporary science has enabled us to Understanding the structure and working conditions of the human brain, we are stunned by the abilities stored in the brain. People who work under normal circumstances generally only use a small part of their thinking ability if they can force their brains to reach half of their working capabilities. , we can easily learn more than forty languages, memorize all the contents of the encyclopedia, and complete courses from dozens of universities.”

The human brain can be regarded as an electronic computer. , because the human brain, like a computer, can absorb, store and control a large amount of information while it is alive, but the function of the human brain is much more powerful than any of the most advanced computers today. Some experts from the Brain Intelligence Institute in California believe that human brain function is actually unlimited. So what are the factors that prevent us from fully utilizing the huge potential of our brains? The key is that we have not yet learned to program ourselves to solve a series of problems, which means we urgently need to develop a positive mental attitude. If we compare the structure of the brain to an electronic computer, then mentality and consciousness are the input programs.
