Last week Elon Musk unveiled the latest plans for Neuralink,
the company that plants a chip in your skull that connects your brain to a
computer. This technology promises to
make the paralyzed walk and the blind see.
If it can do that it will be an amazing benefit for all disabled people.
What else will it be able to do? Will we be able to link our brains to robots
on Mars so that we can experience being there on another planet? Will we be able to share thoughts with other
people?
Are there dangers with this technology? If a couple links their brains will they live
happily ever after, or get a divorce straight away? Will companies be able to put advertisements
into your thoughts? Will the government
force all children to get a link so that they can be controlled?
Come and discuss the digitalization of your brain
patterns. It is closer than you
think. Bring your friends, with or
without brains.
