This is not possible because of quantum mechanics. You cannot know the exact location and speed of particles in your brain and therefore cannot build a deterministic model to predict its behavior.

- Iolaum 8y agoChaos theory is enough if you accept imperfect measurements, which would result in small changes in initial conditions. But you need quantum mechanics to prove that you cannot have perfect measurements of all the quantities involved in the evolution of a system.
