how much % of human brain capabilities are obtained in modern robots?
356422
only 0.005%.\nthe reason is that most of human beings use only 0.005% on their mind, and all robots are man made.

We *can* use 100% of our brain. This is a very strange, but common misconception. All parts of our brain have various functions and all are used. \n\nThe likely source of this myth is the discovery long ago that only about 10% of our neurons are firing at a time. That does not mean only ten percent fire ever, but on average, that is how many fire at any given time.   On that line of thinking, if 100% of our neurons were to fire at once, we would be having a severe seizure.

Its been done already!!!! I read a headline about a company (I'm sorry I don't remember which one) that created a robot controlled by brain waves.  WOW!

No.  But I do think we will be able to bypass certain types of brain damage with chips (processors) implanted in the brain.  There were some tests being done on this and I can't find the link anymore (figures) but they have expirimented with linking your brain to a computer, it works... the interface is slow... but it works.  And someone who had brain damage (forget what type) is now living a fairly normal life because a chip in their brain has taken over the function of the damaged part.

We do use our brains but there are many functions of the brain remains unknown and not discovered.Some of the percentage makes up the mass of water,blood vessels,white blood cells...Who knows in ancient times we 've got telepathic ability?=P

According to this study, 17.2%.  See link.

The model that humans only use 10% of their brain was a myth developed about 30 years ago and completely discredited.  The misunderstanding is due to the fact that most of the brain is not involved in conscious processing or abstract reasoning.  But's still busy, involved with sensory processing, motor control, language etc.  (and these tasks are a lot harder than we ever thought.....)

Yes and no. When we are first born, the human brain is the biggest part of the body. We literally have personalities the second we get out of the womb. Technically, we only use about 5 percent of our total brain capacity, so we know where we are, but what is keeping us here is what is known as stimulus overload, where we have soaked so much up that we cant get any more. (That is why cramming for a test/ exam is bad for you) The other thing is that the blood cells can only transport so much O2 (oxygen), so if we could increase O2 absorption efficency, then we could open up more possibilities. Assuming of course we can overcome stimulus overload. And yes, for the first few years we are growing connections to neurons exponentially. But when we get to about 20, they stop growing and start going the other way. So if we can increase O2 absorption, maintain connections, and overcome stimulus overload, then we can start unlocking our mind. Further more, it has been postulated that the human mind can store about 200 terabytes of info! (1 terabyte equals one thousand gigabytes)

Short-term memory: 7 ± 3 chunks of information\n\nLong-term memory: 10^13 - 10^20 bytes (usually assumed 10^17 bytes) but for a human lifetime essentially infinite\n\nProcessing speed: 10^16 operations/second\n\nMemorization: The processes involved are not well understood.\n\nHuman Enhancement:  See the articles on"Human Enhancement" and "Transhumanism" on Wikipedia

It really depends on how you gauge intelligence. Now, if everyone thought that people were smarter, then there would be no worry of machines ever taking over the world. \n\nThe fact is, a computer can process information a lot quicker than a human can. Ultimately, we create machines that can outperform us in velocity and force, which is also true of a computer. That is the point of making them. A computer can be as smart as one programs them. We possess so many other possibilities within our brains and through our senses.  \n\nWe really only define our thought through the senses we perceive and draw unique conclusions, even expanding the bounds of reason. It is this expansion that gives way to new discoveries and understanding, hence, people on the whole are smarter. \n\nUnless we can create a computer to attain consciousness, but even then, we will have to be cognitive masters before we can do that. People are smarter than computers, because although a computer may process information faster and recall memory quicker, we are the ones that have the ability to expand the parameters of reason and logic. Machines are faster and stronger than we, but not smarter. We utilize speed and function in a machine to accomplish tasks, and a computer may only appear smarter due it's processing speed.

That's not true.  That's actually a big misconception.  Humans use 100% of their brain.  Even something as simple as scratching your head uses a large percentage of your brain. "When you make a movement, say with your left arm, you unconsciously plan that movement and you are unaware of this planning stage. To make a single voluntary movement, the frontal cortex, basal ganglia, thalamus, and premotor cortex are involved. And this is just for one movement. If you factor in everything else that we do at one time, like searching for certain items, listening to and comprehending speech, thinking and planning, memory consolidation, etc., then really, we are doing quite a lot with our brains."\n\nhttp://faculty.washington.edu/chudler/tenper.html\nhttp://www.snopes.com/science/stats/10percnt.htm\nhttp://skeptico.blogs.com/skeptico/2006/03/only_have_10_of.html\nhttp://www.mercola.com/2004/oct/30/brain_use.htm\nhttp://www.brain-fx.com/2005/11/do_we_really_on.html\nhttp://www.alternativescience.com/no_brainer.htm\nhttp://www.abc.net.au/science/k2/moments/s1090374.htm

you have to be really good at something about robots to do that. Doing that is quite advanced.

sure we're getting closer but we're probably 0.000000000000000000001% there. \n\nsome nice reading on the subject is Rodolfo Llinas' book, 'The I of the vortex'. it's a standard text in neurobiology and psychiatry over here but it's simple enough for anyone to read and understand it.

Biological computers aren't a myth anymore... For those who don't believe this, read this article:\nhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/358822.stm\nOf course I don't say it's a genius because it's not, but this computer is capable of learning, associtaing relations, show the results depending on its knowledge and so on... \nArtificial Intelligence is growing very fast so who knows what the future will bring. For now it's just in developing stage, or with national security status :P.\nhttp://blogs.chron.com/sciguy/archives/2006/02/the_rise_of_the.html

Brain implants so that you can learn without any effort, like on The Matrix.\n\nOr Yahoo! Answers.

POWER, can you feel it, look at the POWWWER (cartoon on atom films - 60 seconds arnold by bent TV) power of course, hard drive and humans, alot of things, but mainly humans because humans make them, power sorta come second, robots dont have to run on VOLTAGE or electricity they can run on other powers like wind, water etc etc\n\nhope that helps, Chris

The 10% myth is a myth, and has no scientific basis.  Please refer to the link.\n\nAs for your question, "brain storage" is not a quanitifiable notion because human brains are not digital.  You can easily count the digits in a digital computer storage device, but the simple truth is that the human brain does not resemble a digital storage device at all.  Besides that, I doubt that you could point at any person of any gender that maximized capacity, so capacity isn't even really an issue.  No one has learned so much that further learning bcomes impossible.  Computer discs fill up, but brains do not.
