Science fiction is becoming a reality

[CyrixMII333]

Computer maybe a thing of the past within 10 years form now. What in it for the future? The ability to travel throught space in lightspeed. Also it a time to play god where we control life completely. Human DNA maybe modified to increase intelligent of at least 2 folds. Also cloning may allow us to live on to the fullest regardless of accidental death etc. Of all our organ the most important is our brain so a slight injury can ruin a person life indefinitely. cloning may save their life so that anyone who is dead or seriously injured can be recalled as if the person is a program saved on to a disk.

somebody needs to go outside and take a big long deep breathe of fresh air....

 

[Darein]

Thats the nature of technology it improves.

 

[Jfur]

actually, Cyrix is right on the money...

 

[mackstann]

Yes, the future is fun to think about

 

[dafatha00]

the future lies inside the human heart. our potential is unlimited... <crying>

*shudders* how scary

yeah....just yesterday i used a bidet for the first time ever. Whoever thought that you could wipe without really wiping? Pretty soon we'll be traveling to the Alpha Quadrant.

Sounds good.

Correction: cloning can only be used to recreate the physical properties of a person. Memories, experiences etc. can not be cloned.

The only way to 'save' a brain is to scan all of its neurons and with which neurons those are connected. This information can be used to recreate the brain as it was as the moment the scan was made.

in Japan they have developed the 'intelligent toilet', so why not?

When do I get my car that flies and folds into a briefcase!

computers won't become a thing of the past
what's going to control the vehicle travelling at light speed?
what are the scientists researching genetic modification and cloning doing their research on?
