ELON MUSK’S LACE "seems to be a mesh that would allow such AI to work symbiotically with the human brain. Signals will be picked up and transmitted wirelessly, but without any interference of natural neurological processes. Essentially, making it a digital brain upgrade. Imagine writing and sending texts just using your thoughts.” https://lnkd.in/dB6Z8tN View in LinkedIn

"DARPA Cortical Modem connects brain directly to computer for 'electronic telepathy and telekinesis'. Phillip Alvelda, chief of DARPA's Biological Technologies, told the conference how the device could replace all virtual reality glasses, such as the Oculus Rift, by bypassing the visual sensory system entirely." http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/darpa-cortical-modem-connects-brain-directly-computer-electronic-telepathy-telekinesis-1488476 View in LinkedIn

EMOTIONAL CONTROL. "A $70 million program will try to develop brain implants able to regulate emotions in the mentally ill. Now, as part of a sweeping $70 million program funded by the U.S. military, Carmena has a new goal: to use brain implants to read, and then control, the emotions of mentally ill people." http://www.technologyreview.com/news/527561/military-funds-brain-computer-interfaces-to-control-feelings/ View in LinkedIn

SEXBOTS (of course). "Artificial-intelligence expert and international chess champion David Levy professed that by 2050 robots “will have the capacity to fall in love with humans and to make themselves romantically attractive and sexually desirable to humans.” https://lnkd.in/dR3gNu2 View in LinkedIn

DIRTY SECRET. "For years it has been a dirty secret that one of the key drivers of new consumer technology is sex, pornography. The need to make 3G technology work - and work fast - is exposing that secret. 'Like it or not, pornography drives each new, convenient visual technology, and 3G, which combines powerful new media applications, will be no different." https://lnkd.in/dg5RQSK View in LinkedIn

CULTURE EXTENDS GENETIC EVOLUTION. “This research shows the extent to which culture extends genetic evolution by independently tracking environmental change that is too rapid for genes to track, by generating diverse cultural adaptations to those environmental challenges, and by driving genetic evolution.” http://www.pnas.org/content/114/30/7853.full View in LinkedIn

EYE COLOR CHANGE. “Laser change from brown to blue eyes. Permanently.” https://lnkd.in/dz2fZqd View in LinkedIn

INTERACTING SYSTEMS. “Gene–culture coevolution models and data have examined how cultural evolution interacts with and affects genetic evolution. There is extensive evidence for culture-driven genetic change in humans, including agriculture-induced genetic adaptations for digesting starch, dairy products, and alcohol.” http://www.pnas.org/content/114/30/7853.full View in LinkedIn
