Not sure how I feel about this.

You should also check out many of the other talks on the site.

@brook, Where do I sign up. Seriously though, I would need to see studies that validate the viability of this technology. I would wait for versions 2.0, or 3.0, to come out before actually integrating neural prosthetics into my brain. Depending on the rate of nanotechnological development, I expect I’ll see something of this nature in my lifetime. Imagine technological telepathy, derived from neural networking, it would either be horrid, or awesome.

@imhotep, you’re really into human augmentation, huh? Deus Ex much?

@beyond, Yea, I guess it stems from a childhood fixation with Data from Star Trek: The Next Generation. I also also fear death, so any scientific solution to the inevitable decay of our bodies, is of interest to me.
