What will happen if  Neuroscience and Artificial Intelligence shake hands?






Brain-to-computer interfaces and intelligence boosting chips implanted in the brain could soon make their way out of the realms of science fiction and into reality.

BCIs are electronic microchips that are embedded into the brain to literally connect our minds to computers- basically, brain chips.

A neuroscientist is currently developing a non-invasive computer chip that when implanted in the brain could give an individual super intelligence.

A key part of the research is finding a non-invasive way to get the computer chip to the brain without drilling a hole in the skull.

The average IQ is around 100. A high IQ is anything abovee 140, and a genius IQ is 160 or more, but with a smart brain chip , people could pay to have IQs of 200 or more.
 
Over the past twenty years, neuroscientists have been quietly building a revolutionary technology called BrainGate that wirelessly connects the human mind to computers. Entrepreneurs such as Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg have entered the race with goals of figuring out how to get computer chips into everyone's brain.

A clunky system that required brain surgery and wires connecting your skull to a mainframe,they called the technology BrainGate.

Imagine using Facebook without typing, or driving a Tesla with only your mind.

AI For Good

The University of Sydney’s Faculty of Engineering and Information Technologies has been awarded an AI for Accessibility grant from Microsoft to support its efforts developing solutions that improve the independence for people living with epilepsy.

The system, NeuroSyd, aims at real-time monitoring and processing of brain-signals while driving, in a group of people living with epilepsy. NeuroSyd will be developed to deliver an early warning of the likelihood of an epileptic seizure strike.

This technology will help individuals with epilepsy who want to or used to drive a vehicle.

Pegasus Spyware: Flying Through The Air

 Hundreds of millions of people can't imagine life without their smartphones. Almost every aspect of their daily lives, from the most mundane to the most intimate, is within easy reach and hearing distance of their smartphones. Only few people realize that their phones may be used as surveillance devices, with someone hundreds of miles away secretly extracting their messages, photographs, and location while also activating their microphone and recording them in real time. Such capabilities are present in Pegasus, a spyware produced by NSO Group, an Israeli maker of mass surveillance weapons. What is Pegasus? Pegasus is a hacking software – or spyware – that is developed, marketed and licensed to governments around the world by the Israeli company NSO Group. It has the capability to infect billions of phones using either iOS or Android operating systems. The spyware is named after Pegasus, the white winged horse from Greek mythology. It is named so because it "flies through the...

8 TECH SUPPORT STORIES. A MUST READ!

MOVE THE MOUSE! I asked a user to move her mouse all the way to the right. They picked up the mouse physically and put it on the right side of her desk. RIGHT CLICK! I told the user to right click on the desktop to select properties. She replied that nothing was happening. I asked her again to do the same. She replied with the same answer. When I went to her desk, she had written the word CLICK on a paper on her desk. LAPTOP NOT WORKING! A user was once shouting at me that her laptop was not working even though she hit the keys and tried the touch pad. I run down to her, she shows her laptop still shouting that I wasn’t working properly and couldn’t do my job etc. I look at her laptop, switch it on, turn around and leave the room. OUTAGE PROBLEM! A user once asked if they could download “download the Internet” in case there was a power outage and they could still use it. COMPUTER WON’T TURN ON! Once, a user said that her computer won’t turn on. I asked her to check ...

Facebook Smart Glasses Coming ‘Sooner Than Later’ Without AR

Facebook’s smart glasses will let users record the world around them, and take pictures. Facebook says its first pair of consumer “smart glasses” will be releasing next year as a branded Ray-Ban product , CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced during the opening keynote of its all-virtual Facebook Connect conference. It’s not clear what features the device will have, but Facebook has confirmed to  The Verge  that the device will not be classified as an AR device, and it will not have an integrated display of any kind. The company has talked for years about its plans to build AR devices that resemble a standard pair of glasses, and the company is now working with Ray-Ban maker Essilor Luxottica to design the frames of its first consumer smart glasses, confirming rumours last fall that the company had partnered with the Italian eyewear brand.     What are Facebook Ray-Ban Stories? What exactly do these do? Facebook’s first ‘smart’ glasses capitalise on the iconic Wayfarer desi...
