Video shows the lead researcher in DARPA's "SyNAPSE" program describe it as a "global brain" with "trillions" of global sensors monitoring every aspect of the earth incluing "people" and their "homes". They seek to reverse engineer the human brain and then go beyond.



IBM is developing DARPA's "SyNAPSE" cogntivive computer program. Dharmendra Modha is IBM's lead researcher. His blog entry

Its very clear where all this is heading.........straight to "1984" we go

I hate this guy.... It was corporates like IBM Who made electronic tagging system for the death camps for the nazis.
This goes to show how IBM are still using there method of "money first, Humans Later" way of thinking, upholding the shares and profits

f%#$ the lil guy(s)

Global Enslavement Has a nice ring to it anyway.......

An observation I made on the unusual monetary award granted for this research: 4,879,333. In numerology (I'm not a big fan of it, btw.), these numbers break down to 10. Just curious that the money given is related to ones and zeros-the language of binary code.

That aside; if a "global brain" were ever developed (and the researchers seem confident that it will be), SYNAPSE will inevitably become "self-aware" at some point. This could be a good or a bad thing. Since human beings are the most destructive force on the planet, SYNAPSE may develop a will to go along with it's input capacity.

Skynet anyone?

Why should the likes of IBM not push the boundaries? It's thinking like that which has got us the tech we have today.

Advancements have to be made, and this is the next step in thinking.

I see nothing wrong with this whatsoever.

Nice find man....that is very scary skynet system

*shivers*

it will all end in tears!

I believe a system similar to SyNAPSE is currently operational (Military AI Supercomputer Mind Monitoring: What I have learned). I assume this system uses DARPA as a conduit to expand its capabilities within society while maintaining plausible deniability of its operation. I assume ECHELON serves a similar purpose.

Here is something concerning IBM and the evolution of computing which relates to SyNAPSE: Synchronicity:1981 and 2011.

Tell that to the families of the many millions of people who were exterminated in the Nazi Death camps, due to the efforts of IBM in tracking the Jews and other "undesirables"(Hitler's term, not mine), and then keeping track of how many they killed. Read the book "IBM and the Holocaust" by Edwin Black. You'll see WHY IBM should NOT be allowed to "advance the boundaries of technology".

Nothing wrong with creating a global god-like military cognitive computer designed to monitor us in our "homes"? Right on.

I saw something on the 6 o 'clock news here about DARPA!, it was about that other telepathic study for the military, with this combines makes an interesting future



On the program they also said of all the projects of DARPA 90% failed, of the 10 % of the projects that did succeed, we should be gratefull of..the internet..

But i hope this is all for the better... i wonder if this system then also likes lucy in the sky with diamonds?
