Your body is the password, Episode 16
In this episode of Deep Dive Chronicles we delves into the rapid integration of cutting-edge technology in our daily lives, with a special focus on the growing connection between human bodies and digital systems. The speaker touches upon various aspects, including pervasive surveillance through smart homes and the Internet of Things (IoT), often referred to as the “cloud.”
The discussion also covers the ethical dilemmas surrounding non-consensual biological monitoring via wireless body area networks (WBANs). Neuromorphic computing (Moneta) and bioelectronic medicine, such as interosception mapping and nano-devices, are examined in the context of their facilitation by organisations like DARPA and the NIH, highlighting how technological advancements are enabling remote manipulation of human biology.
The commentary further delves into the consolidation of digital infrastructure under tech giants like Amazon and Microsoft, shedding light on the resulting economic dependencies. These technological developments are viewed as an escalation of the biodigital convergence, impacting sectors ranging from healthcare to personal privacy.
