Nanotechnology to treat Autism? My theory of best way to treat autism and asd maybe a golden small robot that is surgically put into the language section of the brain and the pre-frontal cortex and it sends out small electric waves to stimulate the neurons to make them grow or stimulate.

What do you guys think?

I dont know the math of electronics behind it but this seems like its pretty plausible.

I am just wondering all the millions of dollars that go to autism research, how about we stop spending money on useless research because as it is obvious, these scientist are getting absolutely NOWHERE, its all ways the same bull sh*t answers.

"Autism might be genetic"

"We dont know if autism is started by vaccines"

Autism is the most horse sh*t field of study out there.

Nanobots will infiltrate bodies some day leading to a golden age of immortality.

Or the golden of hackers who can get nano-bots to embarrass, kill, maim, or disfigure their host. 8O

Nanobot assasins, too. Nanobot warfare leading to nanobot warfear.

There must be a way to make these nanobots hackproof? I wonder who will be the Bill Gates of nanotechnology? If whoever pioneers it is anything like Bill Gates, nanobots will not be hackproof.

If they can scan your credit card just by walking by you then in the future they could re-program your nano-bots just by passing by or even by introducing new bots like with a smear of reprograming nano-bots on a public door knob or on a push handle. You would need to have protective nano-bot policing your body searching for rogue or pirate nano-bot creeeping around your body.

If Macs and Smartphones can be made hackproof so can a nanobot. The key is not to involve any servers but satellites and nanobot towers instead. This will save the nanobot dynasty from extinction.

You guys might like this.

Ben Goertzel is the guy to watch. H+ seems to be the popularist end of nanotech and cybernetics. The real stuff coming out of the massive DARPA contracts is still kept very quiet.
( Do not get curious with these guys)

We are not that far away from the opening stages of transhuman evolution. The pieces are on the board.

Interesting question : Would AS neurology/cognition give rise to a better Human-AI interface than NT? Or put another way if AI can be designed around neurology ...

I can't wait for transhuman evolution! In fact, I wish I could return to Earth 1,000 years from now to see what it's like.

Nothing mentioned in this thread is even slightly feasible

Oh wait, except that they'll probably be used for targetted assassinations.

One, there are already therapies available to help non verbal people speak. Second, we actually don't know if stimulating the neurons does anything. We can just attach an electrode to that area to stimulate it.

How about we just install a USB connection and plug up a flash drive with a generic speaking language on it? Actually that would be pretty cool. It's like on Stargate SG1 when they went to the planet where people only knew as much information as the Link told them. It was probably stolen from Star Trek too.

I want to experience it fully. Who knows how long it will take to perfect. I want to see the results many centuries into transhuman evolution. I wonder if humans will become transformer-like bots?

I'm fairly sure Macs and Smartphones aren't hackproof. It's just nobody bothers hacking Macs because nobody uses them, just like few people bother creating viruses for Macs because with a little extra effort you can create a virus capable of infecting nine times more machines. We're all aware of the hacking of people's answering machines, some of which were presumably accessed via smartphones, and they can be jailbroken.

The thing to do would be to only give them simple functions. The ones that fight cancer could only be able to identify cancerous cells and release their medicine once they had done so, for example. One cannot hack a television, or a car, as the electronics are so simple (compared to a computer).

Yeah, NOTHING is hackproof! Macs AND smartphones were hacked! In fact, Obama almost didn't get his blackberry because the security agency determined it was TOO easy to hack. In fact, the signals are too easy to
"hack". And there is NO way to make the signals any more secure, because it is a STANDARD! Change IT, and no earlier phones will work! The reason why they are considered "hackproof" is because there is so little interest. ALSO, the M/S windows system was built BEFORE the average person knew about viruses, and has virtually NO security!

As for the math to get this thig to work? It is SIMPLE! X=1 where X=0! That is to say they currently DON'T EXIST! Besides, as long as we are doing this, I have a better idea! How about a nano bot that makes sure you never grow older than 25, can repair your body to that state, makes you impervious to all tihings, makes you able to fly, and increases your IQ to 300+!? Oh yeah, it also makes it so you don't have t worry about food or water!

As for where the human race is going? It has gone SO far that it has decided to put human evolution in REVERSE! Frankly I don't know if there is any hope. It is ironic that those that stress darwin SO much have decided to reverse things. ALL done under the supposed banner of compassion and fairness. Of course the profit, power, and monopolies in the background help to encourage them!
