[Xinzhiyuan Guide] Recently, Taobao launched a black technology called Idea Buy, which is expected to be realized in the next ten years. What is it like to buy with your mind? Netizens expressed that they were extremely afraid of thinking carefully.
Have you ever imagined shopping with your mind?
Recently, Taobao has released a black technology called idea purchase, which means Taobao will officially enter the field of brain-computer interface after Musk.
The brain-computer interface connects sensors to the brain to sense different signals generated by different ideas in the brain, and Taobao idea shopping is like an operating system. If the brain-computer interface becomes a reality, in the future, we can realize human-computer interaction through the mind control of the brain.
Idea shopping, just one idea can place an order? Netizen: Think carefullyThe promotional video said, "China already has its own patented brain-computer interface technology, some of which are ahead of Musk's prototype. It is expected to realize application scenarios such as idea shopping in the next ten years . " Alibaba also filed a patent application with the State Intellectual Property Office on July 30.This time the black technology, the media exposed an idea to buy chip, but the specific technical details have not been disclosed.Early brain-computer interface research was used for rehabilitation. When electrical signals are transmitted to the brain or cerebral cortex, there will be some limited virtual sensations transmitted back to the brain. Neurons communicate with each other through complex electrical signals or chemical reactions. This research was first applied to vision and sound rehabilitation.Previously, there was an invasive method that implanted electrodes through surgical operations . It sounds scary. There are hundreds of billions of neurons in the human brain. By implanting electrodes, the firing activity of a single neuron can be accurately monitored. But this way will cause certain damage to the brain, and severe epilepsy may be possible.Moreover, intrusive has one of the biggest drawbacks-bulky! Therefore, Neuralink companies like Musk are researching chip implants. Musk's previously released brain-computer interface system uses a neurosurgical robot to quickly implant a large number of 4-6 micron wires into the brain, and directly read brain signals through the USB-C interface. The working method is comparable to that of a brain sewing machine, needle by needle, needle by needle into the brain as thin as a hairspring.Of course there are also non-invasive ones. Non-invasive brain-computer interface technologies do not require surgical operations. They are based on scalp brainwave scanning. The most advanced technologies can be used to demonstrate the manipulation of mouse pointers, wheelchairs, robotic arms, drones, and human figures. Robots, etc., and even direct communication between the brain. Taking into account the consumer-level scenarios in the future, non-intrusive types may prevail.Domestic researchers said that the future use scenarios of this idea shopping are very diverse. "You can recommend places-related things to you through big data, just like real people recommend it to you, which can form a user dialogue, and users can better communicate with the platform. To interact, plus some users' cognitive intelligence concepts, such as elderly people, Parkinson, (chips) can help."From the promotional video, when the purchase was successful, a chip on the male protagonist's head flickered. Taobao's black technology should be chip invasive.If this goes on, did you just have a little thought, a voice in your head said, "As long as 998, what are you waiting for, hurry up and place an order?" Place the order directly there. Netizens have said that it is a bit dangerous, and they are extremely afraid of thinking carefully.Netizens have a big brain, "I: I don't want to buy! Taobao: You are wrong, you want to buy, hurry up and place an order!" "I just said that I only talked with a friend yesterday, and recommended a refrigerator to me today. This is the principle.""That's the phone app recording...""Forget it, even my thoughts have to be monitored, I would rather have to spend a little time typing"There is another question. This is a good idea. What should I do if there will be language barriers? The signals generated by the brain's thoughts are sometimes random, and some have "accents" that the machine can't understand, and what to do if they get the wrong idea? If you buy the wrong lipstick number for your girlfriend, is it a bit miserable?
From the stamp of thought to the Ghost in the Shell, science fiction comes true
As soon as the news came out, fans of the three-body book suddenly thought of the stamp of thought, "This technology must be strictly restricted."There is also the ubiquitous brain-computer interface in "Ghost in the Shell" by Japanese manga artist Shiro Masamune.As the trump card of the nine classes of public security, Kusanagi Motoko is a high-level prosthetic person, 90% of his body is transformed into a prosthetic body, only part of the brain and soul are his own, the real Ghost in the Shell. One of the thoughts conveyed in the movie is that even if the body collapses and the soul remains, Shao Zuo is still there.However, it is precisely because the brain is connected to the Internet that there is a crisis of hackers invading the brain. If the system is hacked, can the criminals control your mind?What about hacking? Look at my shopping cart as streaking!
In fact, this concept in science fiction movies has already existed."The Matrix", "Avatar", "Alita: Battle Angel"... their descriptions of the future all rely on this concept: BRAIN-machine Interface (BCI).The earliest human studies of BCI were in the 1960s. At that time, the subject could control the sliding machine by measuring the EEG of brain waves. Although this study was the beginning of the entire research focus, it still did not use the name BCI at the time. The term "brain-computer interface" was really born in the 1970s.During these periods, BCI research focused more on the recovery of sensory and motor functions. Later, an idea emerged that BCI can be used not only to "help", but also to "enhance". Gradually, the military began to show interest in this technology and increase funding for research.Of course, more often, BCI is now used for medical purposes. But, can BCI be used for healthy people? This is Musk's sea of stars-symbiosis with AI. When touch screens first appeared and provided us with many opportunities to interact with electronic devices, BCI was regarded as a brand new method of interaction.At the same time, worries followed.Just after Musk released the brain-computer interface system "cranial implant chip", some experts warned that hackers might be able to use BCI to commit crimes. They say that cybercriminals can erase the skills stored in our brains and read thoughts and memories. If this happens, it will be the most serious data breach in human history.Although compared with Musk's "Symbiosis with AI", Taobao's dream seems to be simpler and purer-good AI can bring goods.But Lenovo compares, if our shopping cart is stolen by a hacker and made public...Looking at a shopping cart is comparable to running naked!However, according to a recent paper by researchers at Ben-Gurion University in the Negev, Israel, "It seems to be more difficult to trick brain waves, because compared with other biometrics, fingerprints, iris, brain waves are after all Is invisible."Musk is not the only one who has mastered the brain-computer interface. Zuckerberg's Facebook has also been conducting research on brain-computer interfaces (non-invasive). The goal of the project is to develop a brain-computer system that allows you to input 100 words per minute (5 times faster than entering text on a smart phone), directly reading the language center of the brain.This is the hottest era of brain-computer interfaces. In this area, the United States has been relatively advanced, but China is currently struggling to catch up, and some technologies are gradually showing a situation of overtaking.In short, just after 618, and not far from Double 11, there are countless days of inexplicable discounts... What do you think of Taobao's expected launch of "ideal shopping" this time?
