Publisher's summary
La idea del cerebro como máquina, propuesta por primera vez hace siglos, ha llevado a suposiciones sobre la relación entre la mente y el cerebro que los científicos y los filósofos persiguen hasta nuestros días. Gazzaniga, sin embargo, afirma que se trata precisamente de lo contrario: los cerebros hacen máquinas, pero no pueden reducirse a una. Una nueva investigación sugiere que el cerebro es en realidad una confederación de módulos independientes que trabajan juntos. Comprender cómo la conciencia podría emanar de tal organización ayudará a definir el futuro de la neurociencia y la inteligencia artificial, y cerrará la brecha entre el cerebro y la mente.

Nos guste o no, vivimos en un mundo regido por el conflicto y la competencia feroz que nos exige siempre estar alertas y entrar en acción en todo momento. Si nos descuidamos, si no reaccionamos a tiempo ante los retos que nos plantea el entorno, si dejamos que los demás nos controlen y decidan por nosotros, estaremos perdidos.

Dos médicos en la misma ciudad pueden dar diagnósticos diferentes a pacientes idénticos; dos jueces pueden dictar sentencias distintas ante delitos similares; nosotros mismos podemos decidir una cosa u otra según sea por la mañana o por la tarde, o según se acerque o no la hora de comer. Estos son ejemplos de ruido: el sesgo que conlleva variabilidad en juicios que deberían ser iguales.

¿Qué es un cisne negro? Para empezar, es un suceso improbable, sus consecuencias son importantes y todas las explicaciones que se puedan ofrecer a posteriori no tienen en cuenta el azar y sólo buscan encajar lo imprevisible en un modelo perfecto. El éxito de Google y YouTube, y hasta el 11-S, son “cisnes negros”. Para Nassim Nicholas Taleb, los cisnes negros son parte integrante de nuestro mundo, desde el auge de las religiones hasta los acontecimientos de nuestra vida personal. ¿Por qué no podemos identificar este fenómeno hasta que ya ha sucedido?

Nuestra existencia está amenazada: las glaciaciones, los impactos de asteroides, la capacidad finita de la Tierra e incluso la lejana pero inevitable muerte del Sol son riesgos de tal magnitud que, si no abandonamos la Tierra, deberemos asumir la idea de nuestra extinción. Por eso, para Michio Kaku nuestro destino yace en las estrellas, no por la curiosidad o la pasión aventurera que los humanos llevamos dentro, sino por una simple cuestión de supervivencia.
