The World Economic Forum is trying to set guardrails for the future of augmented reality, and microchipping people is part of its vision for a “brave new world.”
“Are we moving towards a ‘brave new world’? Chip implants are part of an evolutionary process that once existed for wearables, despite being scary. No longer is glasses or hearing aids stigmatized. They are accessories and are even considered a fashion item,” reads the Aug. 16 blog post written by Kathleen Philips, vice president of research and development at the Belgium-based Interuniversity Microelectronics Centre. “Likewise, implants will evolve into a commodity.”
Philips also claimed there were “solid, rational reasons” – “like safety” and “security” – for implanting “your child” with a tracking chip. Yikes!
Alarmingly, implants apparently aim to mechanize certain aspects of human physical function, as exemplified by the slogan of Neuralink – described as a “brain-machine” interface to connect “humans and computers.” Sounds like dystopian technology coming straight out of Ghost in the Shell (2018).
Arbitrarily, the World Economic Forum article linked medical benefits. WEF encouraged use of implants for professional and educational purposes. WEF chillingly framed these agenda items under the broad umbrella of providing the “right support and vision” for the future of augmented reality.
WEF provided readers with the tough sell using a Jedi mind trick that presented implants as no more of a threat to health than prescription drugs.
“If the idea of a chip in your body makes you cringe, consider all the pharmaceuticals you take without question. The ‘Cradle to Grave’ art installation in the British museum confronts us visually with our pill-popping behaviour. A 13-m length fabric has been interwoven with 14,000 tablets, which is the daily average for British citizens. Around 65% of American children and teens with ADHD, meanwhile, are prescribed stimulant medication.”
This is absurd! We should all have body implants because ADHD affects the majority of American children.
Is it safe and secure to plug “your child” into a computerized machine grid? It seems a problematic idea. But don’t tell that to WEF’s elites and servants who dictate to the masses under the guise of egalitarianism:
“Ethics should not be preached from an academic ivory tower. Rather, overarching or independent institutions should guide policymakers and researchers in the augmented society on the do’s and dont’s and help build the ethical framework on societal aspects of augmented reality technology.”
Four months ago, Accenture and WEF released a survey that encouraged the development of virtual and augmented realities in society. The survey revealed that 71% of global business executives responded to the question and believed the metaverse would positively affect their businesses.
