Intro
The idea of humans and machines merging will be much different because it could be so much better to be a human today. With machines merged wit humans we will be more advanced in the things we could do. Kurzweil said in the era singularity it will be “enriched and a challenge” to be a human.
Details
Humans will be more advanced and better if the merge with machines happen. Humans could be smarter, saying that basically technology will already be inside. People will be able to live way longer maybe even forever. The majority of the people in the world does not want to die but just accepts the fact that they are one day. Now possibly in the future people won’t have to worry about it. The question is what age they would want to look like. I know people would not want to look old forever but maybe in the 20-30 ranges forever being young.
By the second decade of the 21st Century, we have become used to organs grown in laboratories, genetic surgery and designer babies. In 2002, medical researchers used enzymes and DNA to build the first molecular computers, and in 2004 improved versions were being injected into people’s veins to fight cancer By 2020 we may be able to put even cleverer minicomputers into our brains to speed up synaptic links, give ourselves perfect memory and perhaps cure dementia(Brandon Turbeville).
. But inserting technology into human brains is not the only thing going on. Some scientists also want to insert human brains into technology. Since the Sixties, computer chips have been doubling their speed and halving their cost every 18 months or so. If the trend continues, the inventor and predictor Ray Kurzweil has pointed out that by 2029 we will have computers powerful enough to run programs reproducing the 10,000 trillion electrical signals that flash around your skull every second. They will also have enough memory to store the ten trillion recollections that make you who you are (Future Thinking).
Conclusion
Merging with machines is the future. It will be benefit humans because humans could be smarter. We will be able to do things we never did before. The world could become a better place with a merge. Possibly more safety with human being more physically and mentally advanced. New ideas could be come up for the world and cures for the ill.
