  • In the future, we may have remote-controlled insects to reach places humans cannot. At least that's what Dr. Hirotaka Sato, an aerospace engineer from Singapore, is hoping.
    Motherboard went to Dr. Sato's lab in Singapore to take one of his cyborg beetles for a test flight.

      Except that even in Alienic classifications, we do not classify as insects rather than intelligent beings, so no. However we do something similar to what you suggested to our own people such as in MK ultra mind control, trauma, hypnosis, and AI such as microchips are used for mind control and to alter people's behaviour to the advantage and control of the handler.

    I loved the idea when I first heard of it. There is so much progress, good or bad, that can be made. I really don't know what to think of it after having watched the video though. I'm not someone who will abstain from eating animals, but I can take solace in the fact that the animals I eat have a quick and seemingly painless death. I try to purchase free range meat when my budget allows as well, but I'm certainly not an extreme animal activist.
    That being said, I don't know how to feel about the cybernetic restructuring these beetles are going through. It truly seems like a fate worse than death, one I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. Having your body be piloted while you're still conscious...
    Beetles are comparatively a lot simpler in their neurology, but something about that lack of physical control just irks me the wrong way.
    I'm not completely opposed to the idea, but I am ambivalent to it.

    Just to ease anyone's minds. Insects have a very very simple nervous system. This means two things

    2. Technology like this in humans won't be as easy.

      I dont agree that insects dont feel pain, as there is no proof that they cannot. Insects nervous system actually closely resembles ours, they react to many similar stimuli like shock heat and pressure. Some invertebrates also possess endorphins and enkophalins which are released in the body as in ours to relieve pain or stress. If pain was not felt the need for these opioids would be pointless. I will get off my soap box now ..... :).

    • @ryankwok1021

      Notice how the MK Ultra project ended during the rise of television. We already have mind control, we call it "advertising", "propoganda", and "salary". Why bother with something so primitive, so overt, so traceable as rigging a computer chip to a brain stem?

      That would be...

      C)Hard to do
      Not to mention that it was already tested in WW2 with the "Bat Bomb" which albeit a success, was canceled due to the Manhattan project. The idea of exploding fauna is outdated.

    • @Brian0wns
      @Brian0wns 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      A) Expensive compared to what? The beetle is already built and all you need to do is attach electrodes to an already built system. If you were to scale this on an industrial scale farm I couldnt imagine it costing more than a few pennys per unit / beetle
      B) Modern warfare is street by street fighting. The ability to infiltrate the smallest of areas that would be hard to target would be pretty amazing. Not only that but depending on the area / climate these would be impossible to see. Imagine the kind of real life surveillance bugs could have of a camp in a jungle for example. This is way - way better than drone surveillance by a long shot.
      C) Hard to do? Maybe... but they will only get better and the bugs will only get smaller as the technology improves. I can imagine clouds of bugs attacking a target that would be basically impossible to fire at once an attack start. You just need to use your imagination

    • @panzerfaust5046

      Also, if life is so cruel then it is just as fair to turn that cruelty onto you. You're not more relevant than the beetle or the pig. No more wrong would be done unto you than is done unto them.
