20 years ago Intel said people would carry computers with them nowadays, they said we wouldn't need them, they were wrong. Now people say that in less than a decade we won't have to carry around computers anymore, but where will they be if that's the case? In your brain. Today you control the computer and it obeys every command it receives. Tomorrow you will be the computer, you will search for information with the sole power of your mind and you will surf the web with the sole thought of anything, but what are the consequences of a media lifestyle like this. Have some scientists spent millions of dollars recently? dollars in neural implant testing, mostly on rats, monkeys, etc. Now many companies followed their work to see where it would go compared to the progress made so far. They say that this implant can be used with thought, it can design almost anything and project it into reality on a computer screen. Obviously this technology is years away but will soon become a reality, but of course it will definitely be flawed from the start and this could lead to problems. Problems that can cause the brain to malfunction and lead to motor problems, voice problems, etc. and perhaps even to death. Then there is the other side of the story, the public use of a facility like this. Google believes that with its version of a brain implant, people can search for anything by simply thinking about something. “You will be able to download every history book ever written. We'll put it in the chip and you'll instantly become smarter than every history professor in the country. (Eric Schmidt par 4) This includes science, math, art, English, anything, all within the power of your mind. Now this says two things, one of them will be... middle of paper... about me if I didn't have a small chip surgically placed in my head that could very well cause problems that are irreversible.
