In the years ahead we will witness machines with intelligence more
powerful than that of humans. This will mean that robots, not humans, make all
the important decisions. It will be a robot-dominated world with dire
consequences for humankind. Is there an alternative way ahead?
Humans have limited capabilities. Humans sense the world in a restricted way, vision being the best of the senses. Humans understand the world in only 3 dimensions and communicate in a very slow, serial fashion called speech. But can this be improved on? Can we use technology to upgrade humans?
The possibility exists to enhance human capabilities. To harness the ever-increasing abilities of machine intelligence, to enable extra sensory input and to communicate in a much richer way, using thought alone. Kevin Warwick has taken the first steps on this path, using himself as a guinea pig test subject receiving, by surgical operation, technological implants connected to his central nervous system.
A Cyborg is a Cybernetic Organism, part human part machine. In this we will go through Kevin Warwick’s amazing steps towards becoming a Cyborg. The story is one of scientific endeavor and devotion, splitting apart the personal lives of himself and those around him. This astounding and unique story takes in top scientists from around the globe and seriously questions human morals, values and ethics.
Now question is, Will the thought of Cyborg is in
favor of Human in the future? What will happen when man is merged with a
computer? There are many questions, but a proper and good approach towards
Cyborg will be beneficial for Humans. Because it is individual choice for any
human that whether he wants extra capabilities by implant technology and become
Cyborg or whether he just want to be mere a man only. Because electronic
tagging can be regarded as a more permanent form of identification than a smart
card. An implant could carry huge amounts of data on an individual, such as
National Insurance number and blood type, blood pressure etc. allowing
information to be communicated to on-line doctors over the internet. Thus
Depending on how the technology is used, there are good and bad effects. So
much of this smacks of the Big Brother. With an implant, a machine will know
where an individual is, in a building, ...... at all times. You might not even
be able to pay a visit to the toilet without a machine knowing about it.
Is this really what we want? …………………………
