Would You Have A Computer Chip Planted in Your Brain?

Everything that has come up with technology has been made very vast use of by we humans. I think this idea wouldn't be accepted by people who are satisfied with their mental capacities and intellectual.The people who are in need for a little more in terms of ideas and a brain,, like you mention with planned activities,would be accepted. The life of a person is of such a great value to them,they will not blindly accept this technological aspect coming up in the time ahead of us.This chip is not only scary its,kind of chip that came in the spiderman2 movie,made by DR Octavias,for his nuclear fusion,in the back of his neck,ain't this some what like that.

I wasn't happy with it, the last time they did this to me. Oooooh, that's smarts! Hey, I'm all for technology...but like you say, if it relieves a disability, then fine. Other than that... NO WAY! cdrxo

It is kinda cool that technology can allow us to enhance our brains but I do not think it is worth it. I also think it is very scary, too much like "Big Brother" watching over us or it could turn into that so why make the opportunity available. I think we have done great so far "all" these years just using what nature gave us. You mentioned about us being able to "link in with one anothers thoughts by means of radio transmission"!!!! I like my privacy and want to keep it that way.

Considering the fact that our brains are already computers themselves. My answer would be NO. I can't imagine doing something like that even if it was meant to improve my present quality of life or whatever reason the "scientists" labeled it as. To me that is signs of the end of the world. To coincide with mark of the beast, etc... The answer for me would be NO. Bubba don't DO IT!

NO THANKS! A chip like this would destroy all your privacy.

No to a chip in my brain, no way !!!

Nope. There is no way, that i would take such a thing. I would rather die, than to let someone implant such a thing in my brain.

Technology is making people going crazy a bit. We are loosing humanity worrying too much with stuff like that. Imagine you have a chip in your brain and you are a product. With this kind of thing you can be found anywhere in the world and all sorts of things will be possible. i think technology is great when used to increase health and quality of life. But come on, people are going too far on this... they think they are gods sometimes...

I think this is a good idea only if it can help someone who has some kind of disability or it will help someone with a terminally ill disease. I would not want a chip put in my brain and have someone to be able to track me all the time. I do not want to know what everyone else is thinking it is scary at what Computer scientists are inventing. Scientists need to be fining cure for all the diseases that are out there.

Hello Louc74, u need not fear. By 2035, u will be around 55 years of age, and disabilities will start appearing around that time. :) It is not scary at all. U will be safer. Anybody who is threatening u in ur house, the chip will immediately convey to the server, and there will be people in the vicinity of your home who will be alerted. Think - there will be no burgalaries, no murders, no thefts, no fighting, just plain human beings with smiles like on plastic dolls. Interesting thought. But before that, stem cell discoveries will completely take the world by storm. We might be buying organs offshel. I love technology. :) Pity I may not be around to see that era. Even if I am, I will be too old. :(

I would definitely say no to this technology. I know that this sounds crazy, but this could really happen and the thought of having this chip implanted in my brain scares me. There no way of saying we are safe because of this. Who knows that in times of war it is very easy to locate us because of this chip implanted in our brain. I like the advantages to have this better capability of remembering and all, but the disadvantage weighs more than the advantage. I would say that I won't let them plant a computer chip in my brain.

I'd probably wait and observe for any side-effects, problems, glitches etc. before finally making a decision if such a system were ever implemented in the future. Although, knowing the type of person I am, I'd probably refuse this BCI for the sole intention of "rebelling" and remaining unique. I must admit, with the way technology has progressed over the years, one can only imagine what's in store for the future, and if it's a future that will have either a negative or positive impact on mankind. It's depressing to think that in the next decade, all printed media will be non-existent, despite being around for centuries. Life moves on, I suppose. However, with any hope, technology will never end up completely dominating our lives and replacing many things we currently enjoy. ~Mr. Kennedy~

It would definately be cool to have a chip. Downloading homework would not be fun though. Having a chip could benefit in many ways like saving medical records, identification and stuff. However, its like losing out 'mankindhood'. I dont know how to phrase but you know what i mean. Its like humans turning into robots. I do believe in helping people by using technology. These are exceptions. But to further amplify or learn skills using chips are just a nono for me. Further more, on the side note, these BCIs may have something to do with the illuminati =D

I think the idea is really scary. We're already living with Big Brother and have lost our privacy...right down to the GPS tracking on our cell phones. If these chips could help with a severe illness that's another thing!

[b]NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! Maggiepie "WHERE'S THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE[/b]

Possible mind control. I'm glad that should that come to be, if I'm still on this earth I'll be too old for my brain to be of any use to anyone. I just hope that my grandchildren have enough sense to say "NO" emphatically, should they be given a choice. On second thought, if it would take away my disability, I might be tempted.

The brain is the most precious thing, and all information is here, so we must be careful to enter it here. If we are online and do all the activities, of course they can access each of the brain that use the chips. Needed a software to ensure that the device is safe and not easy people to view or change data. Any information entered must be absolutely protected from viruses and all sorts of harm us. I would prefer to use ordinary technology, because if we make improvements to a computer that does not fit with our capabilities there will be a very fatal damage.

I would have a computer chip implanted into my brain if there was a good reason for it. For example, to increase my brain's capacity would be a good reason. I would never implant one though if there were a risk of my whereabouts being tracked for other purposes though as that is an invasion of privacy.

I think it is a good idea to enhance human functions with the use of computer chip implants and it is possible that it would be viable to replace mobile phones and bulk computers in terms of accessibility for our everyday routines. However, personally I won't go for such implantations of these chips inside my body mostly not inside my skull just for the reason that it would turn us our semi-humans with electronics stuff inside me.

I think that this is very unnatural and unnecessary this experiment shoud only be used for treatment if required for mental health or mobility or dissability issues. To do something so outrageous for the purpose that it thinks it will give us a better brain. I mean come one what about the creative and intuitive side of the brain i think it is a ploy to turn us all into robots to follow the norm. And how dangerous is it? Is it worth letting people risk their lives for.
