Future Products and Higher Human Intelligence

10/19/2009 6:18 PM

Can products have the ability to deliver human issues in our everyday lives.

How and when will this be possible and which of the aclaimed scientists compound this theory.

an example of a product that interpolates with human inteligence.....

While sitting arms reached (distance) at a desk i place my hands on the desk to draw near, intervening the desk reacts to pull me closer...

YES,we must believe that....

BUT,you must evaluate the "intrinsic properties" for those drugs,applied to YOURSELF,

as an unique organism with a "MetaStableRegime(m)",in the contingency of your own actions and desires.....

Freedom is the oportunity to choose consciously,everytime,and (in) between your most deep instincts(of survival),and "your socialcontract",that regards(points)to understand YOUR-SELF as an individual living in a time of drastic changes.....and

(Good) responses needed.....

"While sitting arms reached (distance) at a desk i place my hands on the desk to draw near, intervening the desk reacts to pull me closer..."

Then the arresting officer, who yells "FREEZE!!!" just as you extend your arms, pumps a few rounds...

...into your desk.

Hey Fab

I don't think a desk can be made to draw you near or give you a hug either.

But a neural interface device could be made to create the illusion. That would be feasible and worth the money if your relationship with your desk is going to create some marketable energy instead of you going off and drawing closer to a human being....

Europium's scene of the officer firing on your desk is funny scifi! Sadly, the scene of the officer firing on your neural device handler in some other building is only a dream....

Look.....What you can tell ME about "NeuralInterfaces" ?.......

And..... in which aspects could(?) new drugs and those interfaces combine ?.....

without sacrifying Human Freedom ?......

This is not "drawing" a HumanIntegratedRobot,or a pleasant console prototype where

you can manage "the WAR".....alone or afiliated to a restricted group,or is it ? ?......

Tell me something(s) I ignore.....

...Inherit the Future "BOOboo".....you know what Justin James(techrepublic.com.com/) told to ME yesterday?.....

Read(ing)...>Consciousness Explained,by Daniel C. Dennet)

A wonderful PATH to infinity and ETERNITY is to deliver into your BRAIN in the most compreensive way "The quantumGeometricAproach",knowing(some) cells get involved

with "interstellarIntelligence"..............................capisci ?....HEHEHEHE...! !......

Now you KNOW.......CHINATOWN can be mapped,as well the Entire Earth,and pulse

those designs in an IntegratedCommunicationsFormula to expand them to ANDROMEDA....where,I firmly believe,LIFE exists too.

Astronomers must (re)point their instruments....till i have finished "the(ultimate) conception" ,GALACTICASTARSHIP ! !........................

Well,Chinatown isnot to much complicated___in between STARS,really ARE ! !......

If you want to learn about Neural Interfaces you could start at NINDS.

If you want to know about drug delivery designs there are a couple of descriptions with pictures of them in the WIMS-ERC annual reports - the 2008 report is here, click on biomedical sensors and subsystems to get the pdf.

Or google "micro drug delivery MEMS" and explore.

As for Human Freedom, I don't WAR. Knowledge is power, good for defense. Everyone should know about new tech.

It's the things you don't know about, that have a chance to sneak up on you, I reckon ...

I don't understand the question? Lots of servo assisted devices already do what you ask for.

In my car a small movement of a special wheel (mounted in front of the driver), causes the car to steer the car in another direction. There are other examples available.

This could be rigged now using current technology and say, a macbook. and your chair on a rail.

On the otherhand, you might find researching "haptic technologies" a worthy use of your time.

http://news-service.stanford.edu/news/2003/april2/haptics-42.html

http://www.immersion.com/about/news-room/press-kit.html

They will be involved in what it is that I think you are describing.

Thank you all for taking time to reply and i hope you can excuse me for not responding immediately.Basically, I was trying to see past what AI replacement interprets as mainly being the replacement of a worker/companion. I was trying to emphasis that of products. How products have evolved to become tactile and appeal to emotions, instead of being strictly functional. In the manufacturing facility it will be possible to have a fully functioning AI without the necessity of human interference. This would be from stock delivery to despatch of batches. The area Iwas seeking was products that interact with ourselves, it would be a simple thing to dismiss the thought of there must be something lonely or desperate for somebody to feel a connection with a table. We will continue to develop regardless not many of us don a spear and net to hunt for food. Development of our surroundings, that constanly reassures us is a comfort, even the most egotistical person can't help but say "I know", so there is a strong proberbility for this therory, but I have not be able to acquire much information to back this up, just mainly technical,pychology,engineering,progamming etc. pertaining to the creation of AI in our likeness. I feel as if i were to read a thousand books I would of not got any further than the books i have researched. can you please add a new vision, example of how mundane purposeful products will change our lives, as " I reach to turn my desk light off, it momentarily retains my griip to shake my hand"

Well, let me get you started on the thousand books, I prefer to keep my vision to my own work:

http://tinyurl.com/ye2qnh9

http://www.slideshare.net/whatidiscover/design-thinking-101

As for how mundane purposeful products will change our lives 2 questions :

Why is it here? Does it give me joy?

Design is the integration of responses needed to get to a simultaneous positive, affirmative answer to both.

Enjoy your quest.

And since you're serious, (and polite ) here's another sweet resource, Every link in this one is a great lesson:

http://www.fastcompany.com/magazine/83/mod.html

"design has emerged as a new competitive weapon and key driver of innovation. Leveraging the power of design across all aspects of a business can establish and sustain an organization's unique competitive advantage." -Roger Martin
