[subversus]

Unless there is need for that (I.e. disability for example) - yes or no?

Me: totally no.

 

[Forever]

Yes.

 

[Deified Data]

Yes, absolutely. It's the next, inevitable stage of human evolution. Embrace it now or later.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

Will my vision be augmented

 

[WARCOCK]

only intel, fuck AMD.

 

[njr]

I never asked for this

 

[Clydefrog]

Yes. As long as it's not irreversible. Like if something goes wrong, I'd want to know they can remove it without rendering me brainless and/or dead.

 

[DarthWoo]

Along those same lines, I have always wondered how many people would be willing to have their eyes replaced with cybernetic eyes if those eyes could receive visual information at pretty much equal quality to natural eyes, but with bonus features such as optical zoom, night vision, flare compensation, etc.

As for computer components implanted in my brain? I'd never be able to afford it.

 

[Soyongdori]

Your brain has to be cybernatically modified.

Which I have no problem with.

 

[GrizzNKev]

I'm asking to be augmented. I think it's awesome.

 

[User Name Here]

only intel, fuck AMD.

You want your brain to overheat?

[Alligatorjandro]

Nope

 

[Seraphinianus]

like any new hardware, I will wait for it to go through a revision or two with beta tester customers first

 

[Klaymator14]

as long as it's not connected to the internet... i'll leave that up to external devices

 

[Arcteryx]

Hells yes.

 

[Vicehii]

Absolutely. I've been...asking for this.

 

[Esch]

FUCK no. if something goes wrong with that you're screwed.

 

[Alucrid]

Only if it's OSX

 

[Lucius86]

Totally depends on the benefits and cons. If they are pure benefits with no cons, I would have no moral problem whatsoever.

Deus Ex however makes me sceptical.

 

[lunchtoast]

Yes, totally.

 

[Dead Prince]

if i can replace my penis with a pez dispenser.

 

[piratepwnsninja]

I would, but worry that someone could wirelessly hack that shit.

 

[Technosteve]

Apple inside

 

[jon bones]

once it's established tech and the fatal bugs are worked out, i'm all in.

 

[bggrthnjsus]

first in line

 

[Vicehii]

Only if it's OSX

Apple inside

Spinning beach balls in your sleep.

 

[subversus]

once it's established tech and the fatal bugs are worked out, i'm all in.

lol, never gonna happen

 

[iNvid02]

never

i find shit like this scary enough

forget about a chip in my brain which the govt has backdoor access to

edit: if i had an accident and it could restore my vision or hearing then i might consider it - if it was only designed for that purpose

 

[Riposte]

The new Total Recall movie looks exactly like a Deus Ex Human Revolution movie would.

 

[Necromanti]

As long as my brain chip won't be obsolete in a year.

 

[Sliver]

Anyone who actually played Deus Ex would say no.

That said. Fuck no

 

[Azure Dream]

Depends on what it could do. If we're talking full perception of VR worlds, hell yeah. If it just makes it easier to update Foursquare and forces pop-up ads over your eyes, then I wouldn't be in a rush.

 

[Black_Stride]

After having used payWave for so long, im so ready to install a chip inside me.
Im this close to chopping the antennae out of my credit card to abuse without having to pull anything out of my wallet.

ANyone know the location of the EMV Antennae on a Visa cards?

 

[Orayn]

I will get the bare minimum setup installed just to anger anti-augmentation reactionaries. Anything else will be for the actual functionality.

 

[Espresso]

Never.

 

[The Technomancer]

Yes...after everyone else has had them for five years.

 

[DarkKyo]

Remove me from my head, doc.

Anyone who says no is happy with living the limited life of an ape.

 

[MattKeil]

like any new hardware, I will wait for it to go through a revision or two with beta tester customers first

Yup. But as far as the concept goes, hell yes, bring that shit on. I will take the full-on "brain-in-a-cybernetic-body" Ghost in the Shell treatment should the opportunity present itself.

 

[Eusis]

No thanks I'll take nanomachines instead.

Oh yeah I love pay wave. Having the chip under a finger tip would be awesome.

 

[Kinitari]

100% totally and without a single doubt yes.

If they had that tech right now, and it provided even some mild cognitive improvement or BCI interaction, I would win at life if I took it.

 

[Mobius 1]

Yup. But as far as the concept goes, hell yes, bring that shit on. I will take the full-on "brain-in-a-cybernetic-body" Ghost in the Shell treatment should the opportunity present itself.

I was thinking of that as I clicked on the thread. I'm in, transhumanism ftw.

 

[DukeBobby]

If I was in a serious car accident and it could potentially save my life, then of course I would. Otherwise, no, I would not.

 

[Secret Fawful]

Cyberbodies: I'm too worried I'll get the treatment, never wake up, and what does wake up will be a robot with my memories.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

For those who say yes,why?

 

[Tevos]

I won't be first on the list, but yeah might be cool. It's the next step in our evolution.

 

[Archer]

no

 

[Derrick01]

I would gladly take Jensen's robo eyes in all seriousness. My eyes are crap and seem to now be getting a little worse every year. But I wouldn't put a chip in my brain, especially not after playing Deus Ex HR.

....unless they throw in the badass robo shades too. Then I'll consider it.

 

[AbortedWalrusFetus]

I totally would, but I would probably not be an early adopter. Need to get those bugs out. I'll give it a year or two after release.

 

[Parallax]

No, I'm not messing with that willingly. That outer limits episode where they functioned on electronic devices to live scared me off of that.
