Controlling Biological Entities with Microchips
What they do is take a dragonfly, obviously a biological entity, and you
stick a microchip on the back of it, and it's wired into the sensors, or
the nerves, of the biological entity. You can actually control the dragonfly.
Straight integration of two things. That one's pretty,
pretty obvious to people.
Okay, so right off the bat there, Marcus Ballinger is telling us, um,
very openly, the first thing is, and this is really obvious to everyone,
obviously, we just- we stick a microchip on a living organism,
and that connects to
all the nerves, and that forms part of the senses,
and then you can control
it.
Oh,
okay. What about the human applications?
Because you're talking to us about being able to control, uh, another
living organism, what about the human implications?
Can, uh,
putting chips inside humans that connect to their nervous
system also allow you to control them
remotely? Well, according to our previous report,
they say yes,
yes, it does mean that. But let's keep listening to Marcus here.
Um, and they're saying that it's gonna boost the scale of
this industry, uh, to $100 billion
US.
And, uh, they say that, "Among the products developed,
tools for dissection of
specific neural circuits and brain imaging devices will have broad
market prospects, and
artificial intelligence research driven by
neuroanatomical big data will also explode.
In addition, the diagnosis and therapy of major brain diseases
will be driven and expand significantly." And then, you know, you
know that this is about BCI because they immediately go to
BCI, which serves as a bidirectional
communication system
between human brains and external devices.
Bidirectional, by the way, let's just talk about that for a moment.
It's not just, uh, you- you're
paralyzed, and you're giving direction to your
Neuralink chip, and it goes and does something.
Bidirectional means both ways.
So they... A- and again, think past Neuralink.
Again, that is just, you know, the way to, uh,
slowly release this idea to the public and get them feeling
normal about it,
um, normalize BCI. Bidirectional means the data is coming
into you as well as leaving you. That's what bidirectional
is.
And they say that the interaction can be un- uh,
unidirectional from the biological object to the computer
system, such as for monitoring the state
or properties of the
biological object, or from the computer system to
the biological object for designing, controlling, or
actuating the biological system
