So, you have a chip in your brain. Now what?
So, you have a chip in your brain. Now what?
How can we ensure that having a chip in the brain is safe? How can we protect these devices from being hacked? What will happen to the data collected by the BCIs? What about maintenance?
But there is another way - instead of making and then inserting the electrodes into the brain, why can’t we grow them? Biohybrid neural interfaces offer better integration with the brain and potentially better long-term stability.
The biohybrid approach is one I’m curious to see how will it develop. I find the idea of creating a biological neural interface that grows with us fascinating.
Yes, yes! The disgusting biopunk future inches ever closer! Instead of "brain chips" you'll graft new lab grown organs into your body. A purpose-grown artificial symbiote, like an absorbed twin, will live within you, communing through your nervous system to expand your mental capabilities. You will speak to machines through a slimey umbilicus, like in eXtistenZ or Cruelty Squad. The future is now!
Software made by the high tech industry has proven itself badly designed, buggy and unreliable many times.
There is no chance I'll ever agree to have their software running inside my head.
Now I develop a degenerative brain disordor and perish
That is a really bad business plan.
now we can work harder for the same wage!
