[extropy-chat] Warwick: Could future computer viruses infecth umans?

[Hara Ra]

Indeed. I hope when I come back from freezing that I will see a 'control 
panel' of thousands of items I can tweak to optimize my performance and 
enforce my preferences. Do note that the brain already does this, mostly 
via the pitituitary, but also by several other means. However I want total 
choice both biochemically and in perception. Ever saw the movie 
'brainstorm'? Now add an editor.... and make it totally interactive.
