Hello fellow humans,
The following prophetic warnings come courtesy of Sam and Eileen. Thank you for your contributions in letting the world know of the impending dangers that will soon enslave the human race!
Anyways, it seems that my robot apocalypse theory has sparked some interesting information. Sam pointed out to me that there is a professor Kevin Warrick in England who is a specialist in cybernetics and he believes that scenarios such as downloading information into your mind (ala the matrix) is not out of the question:
Now if you are like me, that video just gives you the heebee Jeebees. Especially the part where the dude actually shares his wife’s electrical impulses.
Fascinating? yes!
Creepy? yes!
Evidence that the mark of the beast will come in computer chip form? YES!
haha
all joking aside, he did pose some interesting questions. Will we as a human race develop into a race of cybernetic humans that have been “upgraded” from what our biological bodies are capable of? I mean if you had a chance to learn stuff by just downloading information into your brain and were able to attach devices that allowed you to control other devices with your brain would you???
I’m not gonna lie, I probably would…
Eileen also shared with me this interesting robotic device that just came out recently which is a truly remarkable piece of machinery :

Not 100% sure on its practical uses yet, but the fact it can put itself back together is pretty cool. Kind of reminds me of the unkillable gollums in Hellboy 2 :
Its a killa movie. If you haven’t seen, you need to check it out.
Till next time, stay away from the robots!!
