Brain-to-Brain Interfaces (AKA BBIs) and Brain Machine Interfaces (AKA BMIs)
Brain-to-Brain Interfaces (also called BBIs for short) are direct communication pathways between the brain of one animal and the brain of another animal. Brain Machine Interfaces (AKA BMIs) are connection between the brain and a computer, or any other type of device.
Brain-to-Brain Interfaces allow people who wear external devices (like a device worn on the head for example) or inserted technology (such as chips inserted in various places in the body) to talk to one another telepathically by sending binary codes using their thoughts. These binary codes stimulate certain areas of the brain of the person they are sending the thoughts to. The codes are translated into thoughts directly placed in the receiver's mind.
Here's a video which talks about Brain-To-Brain Interfaces.
Brain Machine Interfaces allow people who wear external devices (like a device worn on the head for example) or inserted technology (such as chips inserted in various places in the body) to control the environment around them. For example, if someone has this technology inserted in their brain and someone else has the technology inserted in their brain, they can move the other person's arms, legs, and other body parts using only their thoughts.
Here is a video of a guy moving some ele's arm using only his thoughts.
It is also known as Brain Computer Interface Technology and it has a wide range of uses including (but not limited to) allowing people to control computers, tablets, phones, and other tech devices using only their thoughts, recording dreams, reading other people's thoughts at any time, and having instant access to information as we will be linked up to a computerized system (which is constantly added to with other people's thoughts).
Here is a video of a guy talking about the applications of this technology.
There are great medical uses for this technology as well such as allowing people who struggle with movement of certain areas of their body such as their arms or legs to use a Brain Machine Interface to allow their brain to send messages to those parts of the body and move them with the transmitted thoughts.
However, there are a lot of ethical questions that get raised with this technology. People could certainly hack your mind and that might have irreversible consequences. Having the ability to read people's minds at any time you want also raises ethical questions. People sometimes have thoughts that do not reflect what they think all of the time. If those thoughts are accessed at the wrong time, people could potentially get in trouble for those thoughts. Scientists have acknowledged that thoughts CAN be implanted in other people's minds with this technology, and that other people's thoughts and memories CAN be erased.
There are a lot of things to think about when it comes to this technology but one way or another it is a technology we have now so we need to start thinking of the ethics behind it before it is too late.
There's a good article I found about this subject here: medium.com/tksblog/bbis-the-future-of-the-brain-is-now-55aa6f9339e7
Feel free to check it out and also look up other articles on this subject. There are lots of other articles out there if you take the time to look.
