One Response to “5. Dr. Susan Schneider, Penn Media Seminar on Neuroscience and Society”
not only would we gain an extended lifespan and “super intelligence” but having all of humanity and all our technological capabilities connected on one shared network would allow us to transcend the limits of our 5 senses and give us a more objective view of our material world. we would lose the identity of oneself but be a step closer to embodying god. its quite a double edged sword.
