التالية [سفيل ريغت] سيكون معركة على العقل
يوم الأربعاء, أبريل - نيسان [9ث], 2008
ب [كليف] [ثومبسن] [ترولّينغ] إلى أسفل الشارع في منهاتن, يسمع أنا فجأة إمرأة صوة. "الذي يكون هناك? الذي يكون هناك?" هو يهمس. أنا أنظر حول غير أنّ يستطيع لا يحسب خارجا حيث هو يكون يأتي من. هو يبدو أن ينبعث [فروم ينسد] جمجمتي. كان أنا ذهبت صواميل? [نوب]. واجه أنا تلقّى ببساطة [أدفرتيز مديوم] جديدة: صوة فائق للصوت. هو يذيع وسائل سمعيّة في [فوكسد] حزمة موجية, [س ثت] فقط شخص يقف مباشرة في ممره يسمع الرسالة. [إين ثيس كس], الكبل استعمل قناة [أ&] كان التكنولوجيا أن يروّج عرض حوالي, بشكل طبيعيّ, ال [برنورمل]. أنا [جك], لذلك كان ردّ فعلي أولى, "يبرد!" غير أنّ [فلت] هو أيضا بطيئة. نحن نفكّر من أدمغتنا كالملجأ نهائيّة خاصّة, منطقة حيث أخرى الناس يستطيع لا يتطفّل دون نا معرفة أو إذن. غير أنّ يحتّ حدوده تدريجيّا. صوة فائق للصوت صحيحة [بورتنت] من ماذا يكون يأتي, واحدة من مضيفة من [إمرجنغ] تكنولوجيا يتّجه يبزل داخل رؤوسنا. يرفع هذا أدوات يفتن, ومقلقة, سؤال جديدة أخلاقية: نحن نتلقّى حق أن "عزلة عقليّة"? "يذهب نحن أن يكون واجهت هذا سؤال [مور ند مور], ولا أحد حقّا يتأهّب ل هو," يقول بول جذر [وولب], [بيوثيسست] و [بوأرد ممبر] من المركز غيرساع للربح لإدراكيّة حرية وعلم خلق. "إن الجمجمة ليس مجال مطلقة عزلة, هناك [[are]] ما من عزلة مجالات يترك." هو يجادل أنّ الكبيرة شخصيّة حرية سيكون إصدارات من ال [21ست سنتثري] كلّ في رؤوسنا? ال "[سفيل ريغت] من العقل," يدعو هو هو. هو يصحّ أنّ أكثر من هذا تكنولوجيا [جستأيشنل] ساكنة. غير أنّ يجبر التجارب مبكّرة: يقول بعض باحثات أنّ [فمري] دماغ مسح يستطيع كشفت أعمال خاصّة عقليّة بشكل عجيب? like whether you’re entertaining racist thoughts, doing arithmetic, reading, or recognizing something. يدفع متعهدات سابقا أشكال ملتبسة من التكنولوجيا داخل السوق: أنت يستطيع الآن وظّفت شركة, ما من وضع [مري], أن يوصل "حقيقة تدقيق" مسح إن أنت يكون تحاول أن يبرهن أنت على المستوى. أعطيت هو 10 سنون, [إثيسستس] يقولون, ودماغ أدوات كنت سيستعملون بانتظام? أحيانا [رسبونسبلي], غالبا على نحو رديء. يخيف كلا حالات منادي بالحرّية مدنيّة. What happens when the government starts using brain scans in criminal investigations ? to figure out if, say, a suspect is lying about a terrorist plot? Will the Fifth Amendment protect you from self-incrimination by your own brain? Think about your workplace, too: Your boss can already demand that you pee in a cup. Should she also be allowed to stick your head in an MRI tube as part of your performance review? But this isn’t just about reading minds; it’s also about bombarding them with messages or tweaking their chemistry. Transcranial magnetic stimulation ? now used to treat epilepsy ? has shown that it can artificially generate states of empathy and euphoria. And you’ve probably heard of propranolol, a drug that can help erase traumatic memories. Let’s say you’ve been assaulted and you want to take propranolol to delete the memory. The state needs that memory to prosecute the assailant. Can it prevent you from taking the drug? “To a certain extent, memories are societal properties,” says Adam Kolber, a visiting professor at Princeton. “Society has always made claims on your memory, such as subpoenaing you.” Or what if you use transcranial stimulation to increase your empathy. Would you be required to disclose that? Could a judge throw you off a jury? Could the Army turn you away? I’d love to give you answers. But the truth is no one knows. Privacy rights vary from state to state, and it’s unclear how, or even if, the protections would apply to mental sanctity. “We really need to articulate a moral code that governs all this,” warns Arthur Caplan, a University of Pennsylvania bioethicist. The good news is that scholars are holding conferences to hash out legal positions. But we’ll need a broad public debate about it, too. Civil liberties thrive only when the public demands them ? and understands they’re at risk. That means we need to stop seeing this stuff as science fiction and start thinking about how we’ll react to it. Otherwise, we could all lose our minds.
