Hacking Our Sense Perceptions
Apr 11, 2019Are humans limited to the senses we’re born with? Or is it possible to hack the brain and create new senses? Even if we could, would we want more senses than we already have? This week we’re thinking about hacking the brain: perception beyond the five senses.

Thanks for mentioning thisThanks for mentioning this quite intelligent theme on this blog. I would like to recommend to you the following web link.
https://news.berkeley.edu/2011/09/22/brain-movies/
In it a detailed description , provides you with information about the usage of bci -data to watch
brain movies. The graphical visualization of our thoughts. Berkley univesity shows up with its
results on this feature for "2011". I am perfectly convinced that this is not the cutting edge of
今天的科学结果。
So your worries became real.

As well as the crimeAs well as the crime-prediction system of hitachi, which was "offcially" developed a decade ago.

Ken and Josh didn’t thinkKen and Josh didn’t think about the limited focus of human beings in a NeoSensory world. We can’t add infinite senses to our brain and expect all to work out well.
I spend quite a bit of my time with noise-canceling headphones on, where I could see having a NeoSensory bracelet to inform me of sudden ambient noise or even detailed information.
总的来说,这个应用程序是为已经受到限制的大脑设计的。嗅觉丧失将是一个挑战,我希望看到解决。
Bottom line, I would push David Eagleman to respond to the issues of information overload and limited human focus and attention. Is there a broader appeal (and a lower price point) for this tech to humans who are not disabled? What are the limits? There are limits, hazards, and potential safety issues here despite a rosy picture from Ken and Josh.

"smell, sight, touch, etc.""smell, sight, touch, etc."
Etc?
维基百科:“et cetera是一种意思,表示某事太乏味或clichéd无法完全放弃。”
换句话说,诸如此类的东西能感知你听不到、尝不到的东西,但能体验到一些侧面的东西。诸如此类的事情会让你说得快,想得慢,剥掉不想要的软东西。
If only more people were in touch with their sense of et cetera....

我总是回到“..我总是回到“...beyond the five senses". Senses are feelings or SENSations we can apprehend by way of our sensory apparati. Tim Smith asks what the limits are. To my thinking, if one hacks the brain, one enters a metaphysical world. A sort of twilight zone which is asensory. Over time, there has been a repetitive notion of humans possessing a sixth sense.---a feeling of suspicion or unease---that itch on the back of one's neck: spider sense. Why spider? Why not Cobra? See, here we are wading into deep water. The metaphysical very nearly means intuitional. If it can't be seen, touched, heard, smelled or tasted, how DO we apprehend it? I concur with Smith on the matter of sensory overload.
The evidence of overload is clear, if not convincing. The more mental/emotional disorders we identify and treat ( sorta), the more new ones emerge. I won't offer any homespun analogies---they are pale representations of the problem being exacerbated. I have mentioned the modern obsession with time. It is, I think, a big piece of this. Not the only one. VR may turn out to be some kind of panacea.
现在我还不知道怎么回事。直觉对不同的人来说是不同的东西。
One final note: there has been an interesting terminology shift of late. Some people talk of processing information, as if referring to AI technology when describing what people do when they think about things. Human thought may be, a priori, a process. But, humans are not AI machinery. No cyborgs here. Not yet...
