Human brains will be directly connected to the internet by nanobot implants, making us into human-machine hybrids, within the next 15 years, according to Google’s head engineer.

Director of Engineering at Google, Ray Kurzweil, says that in the 2030’s, this nanobot interface would allow users faster access to information on the internet, and also allow information to be uploaded in the same manner as well, allowing us to back up our own brains.

William and Whitley also discuss the rapidly approaching entry of the machine into the human brain. What does the marriage of carbon and silicon actually mean? Where will it lead?

Provocative new ideas from one of the greats–William Henry!

The robots in R.U.R. are closer in nature to cyborgs or androids. Manufactured from synthetic organic materials and capable of independent thought, they are at first content to serve the humans they so closely resemble – but ultimately rebel and wipe them out as useless impediments to their own existence.
