Robots with a hot-line
In the article Robots with a hot-line we raise the question if governments, industries and military intelligence agencies are trustworthy enough to handle the ability to influence a persons thoughts and actions? And do we want any authority to have the means to collect and store our most inner thoughts in a databank?
This might seem like sci-fi right now, but technologies are emerging that would make such a scenario quite real. In this article robots are the link. Sooner or later we will be forced to deal with brain technologies that will challenge our ideas about privacy and autonomy, both for human and non-human lifeforms. So how should we deal with such a scenario?
Nye livsformer og deres plass i samfunnet
I takt med utviklingen av nye selvbevisste intelligente livsformer, som roboter, kyborgere og forbedrede versjoner av mennesket selv, trengs en bred evaluering av loven om menneskerettigheter. En tanke som for mange kan virke fremmed, men som om noen tiår kan være høyst aktuell.
Hvilke sosiale og økonomiske virkninger kan innføring av nye livsformer til samfunnet bringe med seg?

Kognitive "enhancers", bør de legaliseres?
Diskusjoner raser omkring legemiddelindustriens forsøk på å skape et nytt tilbud til sine konsumenter. Preparater som øker kognitiv ytelse står på listen over produkter som skal prøves ut på markedet.
Bør kjemiske "enhancers" legaliseres? Og er det i såfall riktig at skolen skal ha ansvaret for å dele ut gratis piller til studentene?

Woow, complicated!

I do not believe that governments and intelligence agencies can be trusted. And privacy is privacy regardless of reasons given to justify a violation of our right to privacy. But I do wonder if people will be acclimatized to accept this too as many other technological newcomers on the marked. Still this technology is more than a mouthful!
How should we deal with it? Any idea, anyone?
