Elon Musk Neuralink

Hi, my name is Tony I am a... Well you know. Actually Tony is short for Antonio. I thought if you were reading this you should know, not that anybody really cares. Anyhow, I am a ferocious reader of science-fiction. I like to read. For many years I could remember every single book that I've read. Unfortunately, I cannot do so anymore. However, if I read a science article sometimes I can associate it with a science fiction book that I have read and I like to talk about it. For example, here is the link to an article that I have recently read on the internet: http://www.theverge.com/2017/3/27/15077864/elon-musk-neuralink-brain-computer-interface-ai-cyborgs Recently I have posted a blog on a book that I read called "Psychohistorical Crisis." without getting into too many details one aspect of the book has to do with the characters. They carry a device called a familiar, or a "fam" for short. I can't recall if it was a mechanical or an organic device. The purpose of the device is to be an addition to the natural organic brain; this device can learn and remember as well as do calculations to assist the normal brain. Sort of an advanced smartphone if you think about it. Anybody remember the old personal assistant? Something like that... attached to your brain. If you commit a crime according to the novel you can have your "familiar" executed. Since your memory whether natural or artificially enhanced is a part of your personality the execution, therefore, is like being given Alzheimer on purpose. Talk about cruel and unusual punishment. I would very much like to use Elon Musk Neuralink. For people like me who has a neurological disorder where my memory is fragmented it will be a blessing, but like all technological advances, I am sure that this device will be used differently. Which makes me think now if the device is actually worth it or not. What do you think?

  1. Humans 1.2 is what neural link is all about. A number of SF stories envision a neural plug at the base of the brain whereby a hard wired interface could be used to link the human brain with any number of electronic gadgets. While you desire is medical interference to be able to selectively enhance or degrade memories as a way to alleviate a brain disorder, the likely hood of any such application becoming real in the next few decades would be just wishful thinking. First this world system would concentrate on weaponizing this concept. And that will take decades.

The Siege of Eternity by Frederik Pohl My rating: 2 of 5 stars This book continues the Eschaton series, yeah you going to see that in the header. There really isn't much to say in this second book. All we know that two civilization is at war and the earth is just one of many civilizations where it has been targeted for assimilation to the "Beloved Leaders" empire. the interesting part is thru out the series is the Eschaton. I decided to look it up. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End_time At least 2 advanced races/species are fighting to see who will rule... eternity. Frederick Pohl apparently believed in the Big Crunch theory and expressed his concept in this series the advanced species have given religion to the subjected races or species the other side's beliefs are not so credible. Their religion is very similar to Human beliefs of an afterlife which are present in the majority of cultures on our planet. In the end, the winning species and their allies or subject...

Echo of worlds

Echo of Worlds by M.R. Carey My rating: 2 of 5 stars M.R. Carey's "Echo of Worlds" serves as a powerful and satisfying conclusion to his "Pandominion" duology, following the intriguing setup of "Infinity Gate." While the author's broader works certainly explore diverse realms, this novel masterfully ties together the threads of this particular multiversal conflict. The story immediately plunges readers into an epic war across countless dimensions. On one side stands the organic Pandominion, pitted against the chilling machine-intelligence known as the Ansurrection. Both factions are escalating their destructive capabilities, threatening to unleash an extinction-level event called the "Scour," which could wipe out thousands of planets. At the heart of this desperate struggle is the artificial intelligence, Rupshe. Convinced that the "Scour" is inevitable without intervention, Rupshe assembles a captivating and unlikely team fr...
