can humans now be controlled by kinetic neurons, – after a chip has been implanted in the brain?
but by who?
Mind Control is not currently possible because of the adaptive way the brain develops. When a person thinks of something, it will activate certain neural pathways in his or her mind. But the exact neural pathways are unique to the individual. Suppose I told you to think of a butterfly, and I had a device to measure which of your neurons activated when you thought of it. Perhaps if I later electronically stimulated those neurons, you might think of a butterfly involuntarily. However, if I activated those same neurons in someone else, it would not cause them to think of a butterfly.
So for a mind control device to work, it would have to be extensively (voluntarily) trained on a person, and then the device would only work on that person.
The first application we would see of such a technology would more likely be the other way around: using the mind to control other devices. This would be analogous to training a voice recognition program, only the device would recognize the electrical pattern of certain thoughts. But again, this kind of device would have to be trained specifically for each person.
Hope this helps!
