AnkhLabs' BeANKH: Makes Immortality a Digital Reality

The US National Science Foundation has awarded a half-million-dollar grant to the universities of Central Florida at Orlando and Illinois at Chicago to explore how researchers might use artificial intelligence, archiving, and computer imaging to create convincing, digital versions of real people, a possible first step toward Digital Immortality.

Digital immortality (or "virtual immortality") is the hypothetical concept of storing (or transferring) a person's personality in more durable media, i.e., a computer. The result might look like an avatar behaving, reacting, and thinking like a person on the basis of that person's digital archive. After the death of the individual, this avatar could remain static or continue to learn and develop autonomously.

A considerable portion of transhumanists and singularitarians place great hope into the belief that they may become immortal by the year 2045, by creating one or many non-biological functional copies of their brains, thereby leaving their "biological shell". These copies may then "live eternally" in a version of digital "heaven" or paradise.

Meanwhile, 2017 was a year of interesting developments in the blockchain area and especially with the explosion of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Blockchain technology is now becoming recognized as the biggest revolution since the advent of the internet. Some companies are already using the emerging ledger technology in everyday business operations.

In last 2017, about 16% of companies had purchased blockchain-enabled tools, while 22% were developing tools using blockchain. Another 24% said they were exploring the technology, while the majority (38%) said they had no current plans to do so, or were unsure of plans.

But, not all applications of Blockchain are related to business and finance. The core benefit of this technology – securing data so that it becomes immune to unwanted changes such as hacker attacks – can also be used to computing field or Internet-0f-Thing (IoT), include in digital immortality.

The Ankhlabs Company is pursuing an incredibly important goal — the reliable long-term preservation of intelligent minds and their knowledge and behavior patterns. With modern AI, neuroscience and blockchain technology, company have the basic ingredients needed to start making serious progress in digital immortality field. 

The company released a Digital Immortality App, BeANKH. After several years of research and development, the BeANKH team defined the approach to transforming the personality into an algorithm, which then lends itself to a digital copy of the personality. BeANKH combines artificial intelligence, large data and blockchain technology, enabling users to save and share their basic features and personality after their physical death.

BeANKH is a blockchain based platform, which utilizes artificial intelligence algorithms and the smart contract technology to formulate a digital analogue for an individual via identification of unique thinking patterns and templates of emotional response to create a model for the future behavior of an individual's analogue that will keep functioning even after the individual is physically dead.

The decentralized storage and encryption blockchain ecosystem will ensure the security of personal data, which makes the digital identity not only accessible, but also protected from unauthorized access.

To ensure that the digital version of the identity corresponds to the reality, BeANKH uses polygraph-jet technology based on artificial intelligence algorithms to determine the accuracy of general information. BeANKH will build the most reliable representation of the user's personality, thereby taking into account how self-esteem differs from the perception of others and avoids such errors in the network.

Before allowing anyone to create a digital person, BeANKH will provide identification of faces and block fraudulent attempts. Before creating a digital identity, each user will undergo a thorough authentication using the technology of the block system.

BeANKH platform will be powered by BeANKH tokens, (token symbol ANKH), that will be available for purchase by platform supporters and members of the crypto community during crowdsale and on the crypto Exchanges past the successful Initial Coin Offering Campaign.

BeANKH token is a typical utility token that will be used to make in-app purchases at the BeANKH Environment, thus its price will be directly correlated with platform’s Popularity.
