In 1998, when Kevin Warwick, researcher and Professor of Cybernetics at the University of Reading, England, implanted a silicon chip transponder into his left arm and connected it to his nervous system, he became the world's first cyborg: a man-machine hybrid. Some call Kevin Warwick a pioneer in the field of neuro-surgical implantation, others think he is a dangerous scientist who has gone crazy and wants to change mankind's evolution by creating a superior race: the cyborgs. In this video interview we talk about ultra-sonic senses, brain-to-brain telepathic communication, the therapeutic benefits of his experiments and why he think's he won't be the only cyborg on this planet in the future.

Awesome, but i don't think that such human enhancement will hit the market before 2050. And chips can't be tracked from more than few feet. I was once in a hotel where there were chip-cards instead of keys, I just need to have it in my pocket and doors were just opening in front of me, light going on when I (and the chip) was in the room. Also I used it to pay for drinks in the hotel bar. Comfortable I say. If thats the future of mankind, bring it on. And that sonic 6th sense is awesome too.
... at 5:50 it looks like he turns into a cyborg hahaha. Stupid dude if you ask me, not going to have some gov or corporation control my brain thanks.
This man is crazy and he flat out lied about the RFID chip people. It does not turn on lights and control tings in your house. It is a tracking device that the government wants to put into every human being to track us like cattle. They want to get rid of paper money so the chip will be a credit card as well and if anyone rebels against the evil government you can buy a thing because they will shut of you chip. Don't let these devils trick you into becoming a robotic slave with these lies.
Considering your near pathological fear of government and authority (lol, your choice of vids), I think we can safely say that you are way crazier than this man.
No, he isn't lying, nor does he have any evil plans. He wants to push humanity foreward, even though this technology can be abused to hell and back by people.
But you could say that about anything. You could say that there a things in our food, certain types of radiation from our compures, hidden symbols in our papers, etc etc
I thought muscle memory was because of, repitition of technique causes improvement of muscle tone required in that action, path of least resistance etc etc
And the cell signals are quite interesting as well...however they're more like reflexs aren't they ?
nothing near as complex as the drug manipulated brain function ?

The nervus system actualy does some of the thinking itself.
Especialy movement.
I think thats why we have "muscle memory"
just look at the spinal cord even without a brain it will send out signals for movment on its own.
actualy each segment is its own little movement control center...
Its rather amazing really :3
There are ongoing experiments to use electronics to rout this signal forward for people with spinal damage
And the cell signals are quite interesting as well...however they're more like reflexs aren't they ?
