德米特里?伊茨科夫

??? 俄羅斯億萬富豪、媒體大亨德米特里?伊茨科夫去年發起了“2045行動”，引起了外界的轟動。這個組織邀請了30位頂尖的俄羅斯科學家，成立了國際研究中心對人類永生進行研究。31歲的德米特里?伊茨科夫是新傳媒星（New Media Stars）的總裁，這家俄羅斯公司經營著幾家網絡新聞媒體。他號召其他億萬富豪開始為“控制論的永生和人工軀體”提供資助。他的計劃是把人類意識轉移到遠程控制的化身，或者說合成大腦——他把這個階段看做人類進化的下一步。

Dmitry Itskov

??? Russian billionaire and media mogul Dmitry Itskov made a big splash last year when he created the 2045 Initiative, which brought 30 top Russian scientists on board to create an international research center to study immortality. The 31-year-old president of New Media Stars, a Russian company that runs several online news outlets, has implored other billionaires to start funding "cybernetic immortality and the artificial body." His plan: transfer the human consciousness to a remotely controlled avatar, or a synthetic brain -- what he sees as the next step in human evolution.
