"We'll have intelligent nanobots go into our brains through the capillaries and interact directly with our biological neurons."

Predicts Ray Kurzweil:
The nanobots, he said, would "make us smarter, remember things better and automatically go into full emergent virtual reality environments through the nervous system."
My first reaction is extreme resistance.... but I'm afraid I could be talked into it.

ADDED: I'm assuming it will be voluntary, but, really, that's unlikely, isn't it? Even if the government doesn't do it to you... I'm having flashbacks to this movie:



Even if the government doesn't do it to you, won't your parents? How can you compete in school if you didn't get your nanobots? They'll assume you'll want it — like circumcision! — and you'll feel put out if you didn't get it.
