Nanomedical Brain/cloud Interface: Explorations and Implications

This book explores the future hypothetical possibility that the cerebral cortex of the human brain might be seamlessly, safely, and securely connected with the Cloud via a Brain/Cloud Interface (B/CI). Such an envisaged nanomedically facilitated cognitive augmentation may consist of a highly integrated network of sophisticated autonomous neuralnanorobotic devices coupled with advanced AI toward the enablement of instantaneous and finely controllable connectivity with the Virtual Cloud. In conjunction with a description of some technical aspects of a B/CI, this book also delves into its ethical, moral, sociological, legal, and philosophical implications. A fully developed, ubiquitously techtrust-accepted and implemented B/CI, may emerge as nothing less than the next evolutionary step for humanity, where we seamlessly merge with our technologies.

Key features: * Descriptions of how neuralnanorobotics may facilitate a B/CI. * Discussions of state-of-the-art technologies in brain/machine and brain/computer interfaces. * In depth assessment of a broad array of potential implications of ubiquitous B/CI's on humanity. * Introduction of what might emerge as an unprecedented and powerful application of a B/CI, referred to as "Transparent Shadowing". * Recommendations toward the establishment of prudent development and regulatory policies toward a safe, secure, optimized, and positive B/CI technology/infrastructure for the benefit of humanity and the planet.
