[新聞] Google：2030年人腦將直接和雲端連結
Google工程總監雷恩在紐約一場會議上大膽預言：未來人類將能直接由大腦連結雲端。
雷恩預測表示，人類將在 2030 年代時成為混種的生命體，這意味屆時人腦將能直接和雲
端進行連結，電腦將強化我們既存的智能。雷恩指出，人腦將藉由 DNA 鏈製造的奈米機
器人和網路連結；因此，「我們的思維模式，將成為生物與非生物的混合體。」
此外，隨著雲端運算更加龐大與複雜化，將更增進人類思考能力，人類也將可以對大腦進
行完全備份。

Within 15 years, humans will be implanted with nanobots that will connect
their brains to the internet, allowing for vastly accelerated cognition. Ten
years after that, most of our thinking “will be done online,” according to
futurologist Ray Kurzweil.
“Our thinking then will be a hybrid of biological and non-biological
thinking. We’ll be able to extend our limitations and think in the cloud. We
’re going to put gateways to the cloud in our brains,” said Kurzweil,
director of engineering at Google, during a keynote speech at the Exponential
Finance conference in New York.
“We’re going to gradually merge and enhance ourselves. In my view, that’s
the nature of being human – we transcend our limitations.”
The 67-year-old Kurzweil made his name inventing technologies that turn
handwriting and speech into digital output, as well as a popular line of
synthesizers. As director of engineering at Google, a post he has occupied
since 2012, he is pushing his research even further – trying to improve
computers’ ability to understand natural language, and eventually aiming to
create true artificial intelligence that will allow computers to truly
interact with humans.
However, his public profile is owed largely to his bold predictions of
technological progress, which he has detailed in several books, and countless
speeches. Kurzweil is particularly fixated on singularity, the moment
artificial intelligence exceeds human capacity (which he currently predicts
in 2045), creating potential for progress and change we cannot even envisage.
A “hybrid brain” is a step on that path.
Yet even the ever optimistic Kurzweil – who takes more than 100 supplements
a day, and says he plans to live forever with the help of constantly
improving medical science – sounded a note of caution.
“As I wrote starting 20 years ago, technology is a double-edged sword. Fire
kept us warm and cooked our food but also burnt down our houses. Every
technology has had its promise and peril,” he told the audience.
Others say that the main peril in Kurzweil’s predictions is they are vague
and elastic, or consistently over-ambitious. In 1990 he said that by 2020
there would be a new world government, and in 1999 he opined that by 2019 we
would be dealing with personalized virtual shopkeepers, bankers and sales in
most of our business transactions.
Yet some of his more grounded predictions, such as the fact that most
computers would communicate wirelessly and that people would give voice
commands to their handheld computer, have been proved correct. In New York,
Kurzweil defended his record, saying 94 percent of his 1999 predictions have
turned out to be true.
“Now that’s not completely wrong,” Kurzwell said of his prediction that
there would be driverless cars on the highways by 2009. “If I had said 2015,
I think it would’ve been correct, but they’re still not in mainstream use.
So even the predictions that were wrong were directionally correct.”
Of course, with Google being a market leader in self-driving vehicles,
Kurzweil, who also predicted and also helped develop Google Glass, is not
just a disinterested observer.
But while the path of technology in his earlier predictions seemed gradual
and comprehensible, in his latest speech Kurzweil failed to describe exactly
what kind of nanobots would have to be injected into the human brain or how
they would interact with the cloud. In fact, he offered no practical details
as to how he expects his prediction of hybrid brains to come true by 2030.
Kurzwell號稱自己先知指數有94%. 但有些預言似乎不是很準.

如果是要像攻殼那樣可以把知識直接和大腦互通我覺得是不可能. 但如果是有一個類似電
極貼片貼了, 當我們想到某個事情, 會馬上有reference或註解出現, 我是覺得是有機會的
