Within 5 years, IBM will come out with their new systems, which among others can read our thoughts and interact with our brains.

Many believe it’s science fiction but in reality it is a technology which is imminent. IBM claims that said that there is something they want to publish about 5 years and according to them it will revolutionize the world. You mention 5 areas as they focus on and which they will work with over 5 years. The project is called “Five in Five”.

It may seem as if it’s just a promotional video, but in fact, IBM has recently again been out and say they will come with these brain-reading computers within a few years . In the clip up above, you can even hear them say that it is not science fiction, and that it actually is something that has been invented already.

This one kind of technology they started investigating back in 1970 and it has DARPA ever since tried to improve and eventually make perfect. One of the places where we see the first developments of this technology is in the military, which today can be controlled by mind.

Lack of debate

There are already some of these products on the market and therefore it is necessary we have a greater knowledge of what is going on, but also begin to debate about it here and answer the ethical questions the technology has created.

Of course, like with other international pharmaceutical trials and behnadlinger be an understanding between doctor and patient as you are fully informed of the dangers, side effects, etc. But actually, there are also some completely other ethical questions that are more important in time where surveillance and state control increases .

This one technology can help that affect people’s personality and identity, and ultimately change the total.

Then there are all HUMAN experiments and the ethical and moral issues that come up there …

Big Brother state will be complete when the technology is here everyday and as bad as it sounds and affect the personality of people, so the technology will actually allow and read minds and break into one’s private thoughts.

There are also questions about whether this technology can be used to control people directly, but it’s certainly a question that must be investigated further.

When you take all the technology and transfer it into practice, we begin to be afraid and the authorities will surely love to use it. If you are naive might think it would be used to get information out of criminals and terrorists, but actually you can implant thoughts, etc., and thus make people guilty even though they are not.

Many of these scenarios have been up for sci-fi stories and the future as a TV series talks about is probably closer than we like …
