Scientists Connect the Human Brain to the Internet

If your goal in life is to be turned into an AI cyborg, then your dream is coming true!    

I, myself, have no such desire, so I'll forgo the hookups to the world wide web and just live out the rest of my life being fully human, thank you very much.

Scientists connect the human brain to the internet for the FIRST time EVER

In what is hailed as a major scientific breakthrough, researchers have managed to connect the human brain to the internet for the first time ever.

In research thought to be the world’s first, biomedical engineers from the Witz University have connected the human brain to the internet in real time.
Researchers at Wits University have linked a human brain directly to the Internet. The data collected from this project could help pave the next steps in learning machines and brain-computer interfaces.

The project has been dubbed as “Brainternet” and essentially turns the brain into an “Internet of Things” (a network of connected physical objects) within the World Wide Web. The project works through electroencephalography (EEG) signals from brain waves gathered by a device connected to the user’s head, a statement said reads on the website of Medical Express.
The signals are transmitted to a low-cost Raspberry Pi computer, which communicates them to the application’s interface, visualizing an open internet site, where anyone can view its activity.

What does this mean? Well, basically its a special window into someone else’s neural activity that has open access.
While this may not sound as much, it is a major breakthrough which paves the way for future technologies such as advanced artificial intelligence.

“Ultimately, we’re aiming to enable interactivity between the user and their brain so that the user can provide a stimulus and see the response,” project coordinator Adam Pantanowitz, a lecturer in the Wits School of Electrical and Information Engineering, said in a statement.

Pantanowitz adds that “Brainternet can be further improved to classify recordings through a smartphone app that will provide data for a machine-learning algorithm.”

Essentially, this means that in the near future, “there could be information transferred in both directions – inputs and outputs to the brain,” says Pantanowitz.

I think for some, the idea of losing oneself along the highways and byways of the internet
would be more appealing than the current life they lead. Even now, people marry by using
their avatars as their personality and engage in behaviour that really belongs in a bedroom
this side of the computer screen.

Personally, it's not for me. The only interaction with this false world is the Rogue Nation website,
news (are we still calling it that?!) and the odd game of solitaire.
Although, I do sometimes daringly click onto the live Loch Ness Monster web-cam.

It's just the party-animal in me, I suppose.

Not only no .....  HELL NO .......  

/ stay the fuck off my lawn .....
// stay the fuck outta my head .....


Will leave all that shit to the mindless masses that use farcebook an all the social media shit .... they stupid enough to let governments an hackers into their heads .....

Perhaps Willian Shatner got it right with his books about  TEK

I remember reading about a research that was done many many moons ago, it involved electrodes been put in the pleasure center of rats brains , the rats were then shown how to push a leaver that would give a small electric shock to the pleasure centers. The thing is the rats stopped eating and drinking and kept pressing the lever till they died.
They killed themselves because the need for pleasure took over completely.
I think tec is moving faster than we can understand the effects it will have on us.
