Presenting "A tiny brain chip"

[Maxmars]

Reportedly some research has led to a very significant possibility...

Imagine: Scientists reveal a tiny brain chip that streams thoughts in real time

Curiously presented in public relations fashion... the tangible 'sell' is here.

But this is a "promising vista."

BISC is an ultra-thin neural implant that creates a high-bandwidth wireless link between the brain and computers. Its tiny single-chip design packs tens of thousands of electrodes and supports advanced AI models for decoding movement, perception, and intent. Initial clinical work shows it can be inserted through a small opening in the skull and remain stable while capturing detailed neural activity. The technology could reshape treatments for epilepsy, paralysis, and blindness.

This remarkable implant is said to provide "minimally invasive, high-throughput communication path to the brain."

All while being "so thin that it can slide into the space between the brain and the skull, resting on the brain like a piece of wet tissue paper."

"BISC turns the cortical surface into an effective portal, delivering high-bandwidth, minimally invasive read-write communication with AI and external devices"

Uhhhh... why am I worried?  And isn't this just affirmation of many theories involving this kind of research in the 'cold' past? ... you know "Tin Foil Hat" theories? ...

[DBCowboy]

Yeah no.

Fuck no.

Nein.

Nyet.

Hard Nope.

[IgnorantGod]

"[M]inimally invasive" as in you won't notice its feeding you information, or altering it, or making you buy stuff.

Next thing you won't even remember drinking your coffee in the morning, being in automated mode. Oh wait, it's already a thing.

Nah. Not for me. They have some kinks to works out. For instance; personal consent and invasive surgery are so passé.

I’m just gonna wait the trial year until they are able to aresolize the particles and let them coalesce into a gel in my bloodstream and take the carotid brick road to my skull. Besides by then, the voice-to-brain Ad Service will be charging ME instead of me having to purchase the monthly package program. Plus I’ll be able to be automatically enrolled in the rebate program when I unwittingly buy the products I have no choice in not buying. Pretty neat.

Plus it’ll be safe by then. Pretty sure.  :/

Hmmmm. could a person with one of these chips actually learn to take control of the super computer it is linked to?  Working from the inside with knowledge of being connected could possibly be an advantage to take over the AI and use the AI to control other AI.

Could be a very interesting experiment.  Just because the people creating this technology do not think it is possible does not mean it is possible.

But I sure wouldn't want someone putting anything like that in my head.  Maybe if they gave me a full head of antennas that looked like hairs I might think about it...I don't want white antennas either, my hair is already almost white.
