You will be enslaved by computers

The "it" is addressing emerging human brain with that of a machine, doesn't that make us part machine ? if so how different are we from a machine when we're downloading knowledge. What if the machines decided to send us a virus while we're downloading knowledge and in the process, wipe out our very existence, the whole concept is a bit fishy, nevertheless quite the excitement. I'm have to read up on this fella to get a better understanding of the whole concept.

Some people already are part machine. Some Alzheimer patients have a little machine inside of their bodies and they can download information directly into it.

I've heard of the memory chips for Alzheimer patients, never brain transfusing, that's just a major jump for mankind. A leap mankind is not ready for just yet.

I think you've read too many posts within the first 4-5 pages lol.

What made you draw that conclusion, I actually read the first two posts and watched the video probably twice, the idea sounded cool at first, until I started watching the video second time around, and that's when it sinked in, I was realizing this guy's concept is gonna get us all killed or leave us at the mercy of the bots and driods

That was actually my initial reaction to the entire premise. Then what sunk in was the thought that technological progress cannot be hindered, unless government steps in. Just think about the past 15 years, and how much technology has changed the world. I can't even begin to imagine what the next 30 will be like.

People need to think exponentially and not linearly.

Definitely.


Next 30 years may include things like immediate rematerialization of matter, effecting weight but not mass of an object, conventional human space travel... and best of all? Lasers.

You forgot all about invisibility and teleportation and telepathy!!

Its gonna be crazy. most importantly I can't wait to have some sort adequate creation of flying vehicles, no more dependency of gas, time travelling

invisibility will never happen, i think the best we can hope for are perception filters

we've already got lasers

You're both missing the big thing here, downloadable information directly to the brain you can get a PhD if you're rich enough and have a free hour

Did you just say NEVER?

It won't help you sneak around Hogwarts without being seen or let you stalk the USS Enterprise just yet, but scientists have unveiled the world's first cloaking device, using technology designed to make solid objects vanish from sight.

Cloaking devices are keenly awaited and coveted by the military, which believes they will usher in a new age of stealth technology by hiding planes and other vehicles from radar. More advanced versions could ultimately be good enough to make objects or people invisible to onlookers.

The prototype was built and demonstrated in America by a team of US and British scientists only five months after proving it was theoretically possible to pull off the most famous of optical illusions, without breaking the laws of physics.

The device works on the principle that an object vanishes from sight if light rays striking it are not reflected as usual, but forced to flow around it and carry on, as if it was not there. To make cloaks, scientists developed "metamaterials", meticulously patterned thin metal sheets that can bend light in precisely the right way.

btw you can already get a PhD if you're rich enough and you don't even need to waste an hour...ask gaddafi's son

loool @ ghadafi's son

saxiib a cloaking device=perception filter.

Obviously they'll start off with perception filters but there's nothing say true invisibility can't be had
