The world might be getting brain implants soon – can you handle it?

Based on the most recent advances in artificial intelligence and robotics technology, it’s becoming quite clear that the era of the brain-controlled implant (BCI) is upon us. BCIs are said to be next-level devices that are going to replace current standard smartphones and other mobile computers, granting humans the ability to perform many smartphone tasks simply by using their brains.

It may sound like science fiction, but researchers from all over the world are slowly but surely turning it all into reality. And when that happens, don’t you think you should be prepared? This is the question posed in a piece titled, “Brain implants are happening — are you ready for yours?” and published recently in TheNextWeb.com. In it, the author argues that the world ought to be more informed about what exactly having BCIs entails, and how much of an impact it can have on human lives.
