Neuralink might be the biggest opportunity in history. Or it is the biggest catastrophe in history.

Elon Musk and Neuralink are preparing to test their microchip which is implanted in brains with people. That microchip can give the user the ability to control prostheses. And that thing is one of the biggest reasons why that neural link microchip is developed. That neural link system is also making it possible to control computers straight without keyboards or mouses. 

So it can be the key element in the BCI (Brain-Computer Interfaces) and BMI (Brain-Machine Interfaces). Normally the BCI and BMI are the same things. The BCI system is the only needed thing. And the brains can control robots through the computer. 

That thing gives fantastic but at the same time frightening visions in the mind. The thing is that this kind of system can collect data from the EEG. And that thing makes this kind of technology dangerous. In the wrong hands, the neural link system turns to the ultimate tool in the hands of dictators. But same time those systems allow us to make the external bodies that can go shopping for us. The thing is that the opportunities of the neural link are incredible. 

The neural link system makes it possible to make remote-control man-looking robots that can operate at the orbiter or on the deep ocean floor. That microchip can connect to GSM telephones WLAN systems and other kinds of things. It allows exchanging thoughts without a single word. And if it's connected to the AI-based decoder. 

That system can also transmit the data from the senses to the internet. So other people can see from their screens. What the user of the neural link is seeing and hearing. But those neural link systems have also their dark side. The system can also use to control a person very accurately. 

When we are thinking about the fictional Star Wars movies and the remote strangle that Darth Vader uses. The neural link can make that thing possible. The system would be gesture-controlled. And when the controller makes the right gesture. That launches the poison capsule into the body of that person. 

Have you read William Gibson's novel "Mona Lisa". That tells about a girl who could click herself straight to the internet. The thing is that the neural port chip makes that thing possible. If we think of the scenario. That may be in the far future every person gets that chip. That thing can cause the singularity of computers and humans. When we are thinking about the possibility that the entire human race will connect to one entirety that makes the most incredible things possible. 

If that system uses the "China brains". As the model how to interconnect people and non-organic parts of the internet. In the "China brain," humans are forming an entirety. And in that entirety. Every individual who is connected in the system acts as a macro-neurons. 

That thing makes the system very high abilities. The system can use the macro-model or extended part of the human brain to solve problems. If one neuron group is not enough the system calls more neurons or macro neurons for working with problems. That is one vision that the neural link brings in my head now.

The new 3D printers are coin-size systems.

"The tiny device could enable a user to rapidly create customized, low-cost objects on the go, like a fastener to repair a wobbly bicycle wheel or a component for a critical medical operation. Credit: Sampson Wilcox, RLE" (Scitech, Tiny Titan: MIT’s Revolutionary Coin-Sized 3D Printer Fits in Your Pocket) Researchers created a 3D printer that is coin-size. That kind of printer can create things like microchips. But it's possible. Those tiny 3D printers can also work in extremely large-size projects. In simplest models, the 3D printers are positioned on tracks. The 3D printer itself is the tool, that can be part of the modular production systems.  There are visions of high-temperature metal printers installed on the gantry cranes. That makes those crane printers that can make even ship-size things. The crane that the printer controls can move back and forth and the printer can move horizontally. This kind of thing can turn the crane into a high-temperature 3D printer, that...

Quantum computers and ultra-fast photonic microchips can danger even the most secure communication.

"Quantum computers could pose a major security risk to current communication systems in 12-15 years with their exponentially greater speed and code-breaking ability. (ScitechDaily, Today’s Most-Secure Communications Threatened by Future Quantum Computers) Quantum computers can break entire binary cryptography. And that makes all communication unsecured. That is one of the greatest threats in quantum computing. And this brings the arms race to the quantum age. The quantum computer can create codes that any binary computer can break. But the quantum computer can also break old-fashioned codes. And that makes it an ultimate weapon and sabotage tool.   Quantum computers can change the measurements of the ammunition in factories by changing the system calibration. Or it can delete databases from the opponent's computer systems. This thing can delete all SIM cards from mobile telephones. In peacetime, the hackers that operate using quantum systems can steal the names of the counter-...

Electric power innovations. Fuel cells in aircraft and solar panels over Arizona canal.

  "ZEROe teams powered on the iron pod, the future hydrogen-propulsion system designed for Airbus’ electric concept aircraft." (Intersting Engineering, Airbus's ZEROe: First engine fuel cell powers up for hydrogen flight) Electric power innovations. Fuel cells in aircraft and solar panels over Arizona canal.  Airbus Zero is a testbed for fuel cells that are used in commercial aircraft. The problem with aircraft is always noise and pollution. If the aircraft uses electric engines. That decreases noise levels and cleans the air, especially around airfields. Lightweight solar panels that can be installed on the wings and body of aircraft can give electricity to electric engines. And they can extend an aircraft's operational range.   The thing that makes this kind of system interesting is that the "flying cars" or cheap VTOL aircraft can use them as a power source. The hydrogen power cells can give energy to electric aircraft at night time. And that makes them m...
