Comment on Harvard creates cyborg flesh that’s half man, half machine

When I read things like this, I can't help but conclude that ultimately we will become one with our machines: "as far as the cells are concerned, they’re just normal cells that behave normally — but the electronic side actually acts as a sensor network, allowing a computer to interface directly with the cells."

If you think about it, that's actually a pretty easy conclusion to come to, even before stories like this. Every new technology we make is meant to enhance our abilities, and they're always getting smaller and easier to use. What's smaller and easier to use than to have it built right into your body as if it were just there naturally?

"It was us who blackened the skies."
