windcatcher 0 #1 January 26, 2006 There is so much information that can be stored in a tiny computer chip that could be implanted in humans. Think of all the possibilites if we all were implanted!!! No credit cards or cash to carry around, identity theft would probably become extinct... Come on guys let's argue ( and laughing at me is permissible! ) ComputerChip How long before we all become "chipped"? Mother to the cutest little thing in the world...

Gravitymaster 0 #6 January 26, 2006 Until someone figures out how to download all the info wirelessly. On the upside, it would be kind of cool to be able to store everything you learn or want to know on a chip so that all knowledge is available to you in an instant.

windcatcher 0 #7 January 26, 2006 Don't you think I know about the correlation between the mark of the beast and computer chips???

windcatcher 0 #9 January 26, 2006 Yeah just think of all the information it could hold!!! The government could regulate it, so they could track you and have every kind of medical history, job history, bank account info,etc. Think of all the possibilities for mankind!!!! edited to add: You never answered how long!

Never answered how long what? As for information, on one hand, giving the government access to everything about me is a tad scary. On the other though, they already probably do.Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GTAVercetti 0 #12 January 26, 2006 QuoteReread the thread title please. And you just like to argue don't you?????????????????? Yeah, I like to argue. If the argument is good, I ALWAYS come away with new insight and knowledge...even if I don't agree with it. As for how long? Don't care. I barely use my cell phone so having a computer chip implanted is not high on my priorities. But given that McDonald's JUST got the ability to accept debit cards, I am going to say it will be awhile.Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

Jeff.Donohue 0 #25 January 26, 2006 QuoteWouldn't want having my finger chopped off by identity thieves wanting to use it for their gain... Probably better than if they switch to retina scanning technology, though, right? When I was in private practice, I had a client (Cyberkinetics, Inc.) that developed a chip that could be implanted on the surface of a quadriplegic’s brain. The chip read the activity of the neurons (a statistical sampling of only 100 neurons, believe it or not), and a computer that was linked to the chip could convert data from the chip into useful, patient-controlled information. So, for instance, the patient could "think" a mouse on a computer screen to move up, down, left, right, and “click”. Now, when you start thinking of the implications of this technology, it’s pretty amazing. Expand the technology to a wireless chip (relatively easy to do) or a non-invasive technology, so that it's not a chip, but a helment (relatively harder to do, but not impossible), and you've got the making of a really amazing technology.
