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.

  • that is beyond imagination, exciting but scary. My question will this really bring safe and constant benefits to human kind or will geopardize?

  • Resistance is futile.

  • The point of this, as I gather wouldn't be to "download" knowledge, but rather to access it as we do wikipedia using computers. If this is true, then it would be impossible for anyone to directly control our brains in the same way as a computer. People get far too worked up and worried over this but remember, this man is clever, probably more so than you. He wouldn't allow such a thing to exist. As for playing god, he doesn't exist so why not?
