Can a thuaght be read yet?
Do they have the technology... Like Nano.... Like the following video...

Mind-Reading Technology

In case you needed any more evidence that science and technology are racing ahead faster than our ability to understand the implications and prepare for responsible governance, read this:

A team of world-leading neuroscientists has developed a powerful technique that allows them to look deep inside a person's brain and read their intentions before they act.

The research breaks controversial new ground in scientists' ability to probe people's minds and eavesdrop on their thoughts, and raises serious ethical issues over how brain-reading technology may be used in the future.

The team used high-resolution brain scans to identify patterns of activity before translating them into meaningful thoughts, revealing what a person planned to do in the near future. It is the first time scientists have succeeded in reading intentions in this way.

Whether it is neuroscience, genetic engineering, or nanotechnology, it is clear that a great deal more emphasis should be placed on studying the ethical, legal, and social implications (ELSI) of these emerging technologies.

We're not advocating to slow down the technical track -- that would be nearly impossible, and unwise to boot -- but governments, corporate groups, and international issue organizations must prioritize and amply budget for serious applied studies of risks, benefits, and potential regulatory strategies.

Complete free will in thought...With mind reading tech. coming out. [link to crnano.typepad.com] Moral logic and moral (The Golden Rule!) love above freewill in action in reality.

Complete freewill in entertainment, virtual reality/Internet2 - One huge vr world. [link to venturebeat.com] liberty, freedom of speech,freedom of religion/spirtuality, freedom of investigating on the internet as along as none of the above Seriously harms anyone in real

Re: Can a thuaght be read yet?
Yes, that typo in the headline makes you appear kinda dumb.
"The world will soon wake up to the reality that everyone is broke and can collect nothing from the bankrupt, who are owed unlimited amounts by the insolvent, who are attempting to make late payments on a bank holiday in the wrong country, with an unacceptable currency, against defaulted collateral, of which nobody is sure who holds title."

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

The woman who is not pursued sets up the doctrine that pursuit is offensive to her sex, and wants to make it a felony. No genuinely attractive woman has any such desire. - H.L. Mencken, In Defense Of Women

Asians have been reading minds for centuries.

Everyone on GLP knows this. The truth cannot lie.

Internet 2 will be a huge online internet. Like the matrix...


This is what the Illuminati is working on. lol

Would you let them in inject you??

Virtual reality has long promised a way to create an immersive illusion so convincing you can’t tell the fake from the real. Futurist Ray Kurzweil says it’s that kind of virtual reality will make virtual travel possible. Not in the way you might expect, with a super-realistic display creating faux imagery on a screen or a pair of goggles. But instead by injecting nanobots into your brain.

Kurzweil speculates in an interview with Good magazine that nanotechnology could simulate travel because an injection of nanobots could trick your neurons into thinking that you’re really traveling someplace you aren’t.

If it sounds a bit like taking psychedelic drugs, it is. You get pretty much the same effect, but these nanobots are technically robots, not drugs.

Do I think this means that it’s time to invest in nanotechnology gaming and to sell short anything that has to do with display-based video games or virtual worlds? No. It’ll take time before the nanobots are perfected. And can you imagine what happens if they stimulate the wrong part of your brain and give you some kind of nightmare or seizure? I wouldn’t want to be the guinea pig for that experiment.

I heard Kurzweil talk last year about game development and the next 20 years at the Game Developers Conference. He speculated back then that human lifespans would start stretching longer and that we would start becoming immortal at some point as nanotechnology and biological research advances make it possible to repair our bodies as they age. Kurzweil is also a proponent of the Singularity theory.

I would wager we’re quite a few years away from making this happen. As for virtual travel, Kurzweil estimates that flawless virtual travel will be doable around 2030. But the Good magazine interview is nevertheless fascinating.

Re: Can a thuaght be read yet?
Who needs your thoughts anyway, do you secretly think something very special?

I mean, I write "my thoughts" in a public place, on the Internet message board, I don't hide them, yet nobody reads them, I mean, come on, guys, here, read my thoughts, I'm all yours. And.. and nobody comes.
