Brain prostheses.

[kyrielle]

No, seriously, they are developing them and are moving on to testing them on brain tissue from rats (not yet on living rats, but that's in the works along with a full testing plan).

A prosthetic that can stand in for part of the brain. It's a boggling concept, and it raises all sorts of ethics and paranoia questions. I think it's potentially very good, but imagine what a bug could do....

I'm currently being scared by the thought of open-source headware, personally.
