I think so. I have recently discovered impressioning progress in
neuronal nets used for handicaped (completely paralyzed) people. They
are able to learn fast the handling of a cursor and files on a
computer. No doubt it will be used soonely to vide-games and in the
middle run it could replace the keyboard for most application. Then
those neuronal nets will grow into "artificial" sort of neocortex and I
can imagine taking up the main role in our brain information
processing. Then we could just abandon brain!
Yet I think Cryo will progress too, most probably by genetic
manipulation, copying and ameliorating some molecular technics used by
frogs I think.
