Blue brain technology aims to create a synthetic brain using nanobots and supercomputing. It would function similarly to the human brain by taking inputs, processing information, and producing outputs. A key goal is to upload the contents of natural brains into virtual brains to preserve human intelligence, knowledge, and skills indefinitely. Realizing such a brain would require powerful hardware and software like large memory, fast processors, and programs to translate between neural and digital signals. Potential advantages include enhanced memory and decision making. Disadvantages could include overreliance on computers and misuse of personal information.
