Scientists extract images directly from brain
Looks like I’m only a few years from adding a new widget to the site called “what is Bill looking at”. That has frightening and odd implications.
I would have to agree that it is frightening but at the same time has amazing promise for us as humans to understand who and what we actually are. At this point, we don’t even have a definition of consciousness. It is essential for us to create new technology to explore the workings of the brain so that we can figure out how and it works.
Another implication is that everyone may learn about the stuff people want to keep secret, for example. Someone may want to hide the fact that they want to do the cute red haired girl at the supermarket that has only one eye, a club foot, and smells like beef vegetable soup.
Ths reserch should remain restricted absolutely to scientific ends. No one outside pure research should use the results od such research on humans. It would end all freedom. There should be no exception, exept, perhaps, in rare and otherwise hopeless psychiatric cases.
I foresee though all the Police Ministers and Chiefs of all the Secret Services feverishly trying to get hold of the apparatus and knowledge of these dscoveries.
The U.N. better ban developement in this direction. The ulimate instrument of power!
