Approaching the computers, he asks one of the scientists about the multicolored grid

Approaching the computers, he asks one of the scientists about the multicolored grid on the screen. "Each of these squares is an electrode that is in its brain," he says. Each time a neuron next to the wire is activated, the pink line penetrates into the corresponding cell. The Johnson team is going to start with simple memory tests. "You will be shown words," explains the scientist. "Then there will be some mathematical problems to make sure that you do not rehearse words in your mind. Try to remember as many words as you can. " One of the scientists hands Dickerson a computer tablet, and everyone is silent. Dickerson looks at the screen, absorbing the words. A few minutes after the mathematical task knocks down her thoughts, she tries to remember what she was reading. "Smoke ... an egg ... a mud ... a pearl ...". Then they try to do something more complicated, with a sequence of memories. As one scientist at Kernel explains, they can not collect as much data from the wires connected to 30 or 40 neurons. An individual will not be too difficult to get, but to collect enough data to reproduce memories that will be like a scene in the film, it will be impossible. Sitting on the edge of Dickerson's bed, the scientist Kernel challenges. "Tell me, when did you last go to a restaurant?" "It was five or six days ago," Dickerson said. "I was at a Mexican restaurant in Mission Hills. We ate chips and salsa. " He continues.
