What is the future of communication?
 +

 +

 +
 +
The future is shiny. See more essential gadget pictures.
 +
Hemera/Thinkstock
 +
Fifty years ago, the tools we rely upon to communicate today were only science fiction. Today, you can purchase a smartphone and make calls, surf the Web, play games, run applications and accomplish more than most speculative fiction authors dared to dream. So what's next?
 +
In the short term, we'll likely see basic cell phones slowly fade away. As smartphones become more common and less expensive, more people will adopt them. The process is gradual. As with most new technologies, a group of enthusiastic adopters lead the way. Sometimes, the general population will follow the early pioneers -- the compact disc is a good example of such technology. In other cases, the early adopters end up owning technology that becomes obsolete without ever finding wide acceptance -- like LaserDiscs.
 +
Smartphones seem to be in the first category. Products like the Apple iPhone and Google's Android operating system have pushed the smartphone out of the world of gadget geeks and into the mass market. In 2010, the first 4G smartphone for a major carrier in the United States made an appearance. It was the HTC EVO 4G, running on Sprint's WiMAX network [source: CNET]. The 4G network allows for faster data transfer speeds than other networks.
 +
The Internet will continue to play an increasing role in communication. Voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) already plays a large role in several communication products and services. Sites like Facebook and Twitter allow users to communicate with networks of people. With the rise of the Web, people now have a platform from which they can address the world. In the past, only celebrities and politicians could address so many people at one time. Now, anyone with an Internet connection can do the same thing.
 +
This may lead to changes in everything from entertainment to politics. Using the Web as a communication tool, people with aspirations may be able to find an audience more easily than ever before. It may not be long until a relatively unknown person uses the Internet to win enough support to be elected president of the United States.
 +
So far we've looked at some fairly mundane advances in communication. But what about the distant future?
 +
 +
Looking Ahead to Future Communication
 +
 +
Future communication may combine elements of augmented reality.
 +
iStockphoto/Thinkstock
 +
One way we might see communication change in the future is through augmented reality. In an augmented-reality system, you view the world through a technological overlay. This could take the form of a hand-held device like a smartphone -- there are several augmented-reality applications already available for some phones. Another possible application is through a set of augmented-reality glasses. In either case, you can view the world around you and see real-time digital information about what you're viewing.
 +
The classic example of augmented reality is the restaurant review. You could stand in front of a restaurant and, through an augmented-reality system, read customer reviews or view the daily specials without ever walking inside. But the applications don't have to stop with locations. Augmented-reality systems might extend to people as well. Imagine looking at a stranger and seeing that person's name, Facebook profile, Twitter handle and other information. Clearly, augmented reality systems will raise concerns about privacy and safety, but such systems are already in development.
 +
Then there's video conferencing. While the technology has existed for years, video calls aren't popular in the United States. It might be because the hardware hasn't been compelling or cost-effective enough. But now webcams are starting to appear on televisions and are standard on many laptops. Are we about to enter an era of video conferencing, or is it too much work to make sure you and your house look nice before you order that pizza?
 +
One drawback to video conferencing is that it either requires you to stay in one place for the duration of the call or to hold a device so that you're visible for the whole conversation. We've become used to having a great deal of freedom while on the phone. Will we really adopt a technology that will necessitate that we keep still? Perhaps we'll use video conferencing for special occasions or short conversations.
 +
Language barriers are disappearing as well. Devices that can translate languages in real time are allowing people from different countries and cultures to communicate without the need for an interpreter.
 +
In the distant future, we may be able to communicate by sending our thoughts through a network directly into someone else's brain. We're decades away from such technology, but scientists are working on creating brain-computer interfaces that allow people to transmit thoughts directly to a computer. Perhaps 50 years from now we'll all use an electronic version of telepathy.
 +
The technology of communication evolves at a blistering pace. It may turn out that our predictions don't even scratch the surface. Only time will tell.

3 Emerging Future Technologies That Will Make You Smarter
 +
admin | February 3, 2016 | Science+Tech | No Comments
 +
 +
We’ve all wished at one time or another that we were smarter. Maybe it’s so that you can ace that next math or physics test, or perhaps you’re just sick of losing at Trivia Crack. Whatever the reason you’d like to be smarter, read on to learn more about some future technologies that have the potential for making us all smarter human beings.
 +
 +
 +
1. tCDS: transcranial Direct Current Stimulation
 +
 +
 +
This technology is still in it’s infancy, but there are currently some companies selling units online. Reddit user Ryantific_theory does a great job explaining more about it:
 +
“tDCS (transcranial Direct Current Stimulation) has shown significant improvements in learning speed in a few scientific studies. To sum it up, it functions by running a weak DC (non-alternating) current across cortical regions, and producing a persistent excitability in the affected neurons, this is known as LTP (Long Term Potentiation) and is one of the hallmarks of learning. Anyway, it has potential to produce literal thinking caps, and some people have already started selling basic units for it.”
 +
Ryantific_theory
 +
Redditor
 +
So basically if you’re willing to slap some electrodes on yourself every day (or every couple of days) and zap your brain with electrical current, you could increase your intelligence without doing anything else. Want to take a look at some units currently for sale? They can be found on the following websites (LineMind.com does not have any affiliation with these providers):
 +
 +
https://thebrainstimulator.net/
 +
http://www.tdcs-kit.com/
 +
http://www.foc.us/
 +
https://speakwisdom.wordpress.com/2012/12/09/can-a-simple-safe-tdcs-device-be-built-from-radio-shack-components/
 +
 +
There’s even a do-it-yourself option for those that want to get smarter on a budget.
 +
 +
Ryantific_theory goes on to explain that
 +
 +
 +
“they're all fairly early stage, and somewhat crude overall. While there's nothing to stop you from living your life however you want, I would be somewhat cautious. If it is something that you decide to do, I would look up the lengths of time studies had it running on subjects to get an idea of what's reasonable or crazy. The review article refers to stimulation times of 9-13 minutes producing long lasting plasticity changes, and those can be maintained by stimulation once a day.
 +
The danger in overstimulating, is that you can force neural consolidation if you apply the current long enough, and it would lock in whatever neurons happen to be in the current path with unpredictable, if relatively minor, consequences. So just say no to overstimulation.”
 +
 +
 +
2. Neuromodulation: Deep Brain Stimulation
 +
 +
Deep brain stimulation involves implanting a “brain pacemaker” directly into the brain. This brain pacemaker would then send electrical impulses to different regions of the brain, thereby influencing how the brain responds. It’s current applications are all for medical reasons like Parkinsons disease, major depressive disorder and obsessive compulsive disorder among a few others. According to Ryantific_theory:
 +
 +
 +
“Neuromodulation (Deep Brain Stimulation) will become massively important as the implementation reaches continually higher and higher resolutions, and is applied beyond Parkingson's and the few other select conditions it's currently used for. Conceptualize the fact that everything you are exists as a series of electrical impulses in your skull, as we decode more and more of the neural code, we will eventually create implants that give us an unprecedented control over our own mind.
 +
Ethically, this is a major issue, because if you can turn motivation, happiness, satisfaction, desire, and interest on and off at will, where do we draw the line? For people struggling with anxiety or depression, or anything they don't like, we will have the technology to allow people to fundamentally change themselves. Stimulation of the hippocampus has been shown to also potentially help improve memory formation and recall.
 +
Ultimately the idea of an implanted neural net with a number of connections to critical areas seems likely, but directly offloading memories and other sci-fi tropes is deep, deep future. DARPA happens to be working on a internal display that takes advantage of the accessability of the V1 cortex, and exact visuo-spacial mapping to put a "perceived" display into visual space, which basically amounts to a screen shown on your internal representation of visual space. Normally I'd write it off as another far flung hope, but they're actually developing tech to make it possible, and recently developed with the U of Wisc a graphene optoelectric stimulating recorder. Which is sweet.”
 +
 +
 +
Although he also states applications that would make a person smarter are perhaps 20 years away and I know you need help with Trivia Crack sooner than that. I also think it’s worth reiterating a striking comment from above:
 +
“Conceptualize the fact that everything you are exists as a series of electrical impulses in your skull.”
 +
You know that hoarder cat lady down the street? Or what about that really ugly sweater your grandma thought you would love for Christmas. It’s all a result of a series of electrical impulses in the brain. Damn, things sure do easily go awry.
 +
 +
 +
3. Changes in Education and Access to Education
 +
 +
 +
 +
The final future technology that will make us smarter won’t necessarily be technology itself, but rather it’s application in the education process. As Redditor Chispy stated:
 +
“Virtual and augmented reality will allow for cheap and efficient methods of visual learning. Couple it with repetitive learning strategies, and you can easily 'Gamify' Education, and make learning happen through aspiration and collaboration.”
 +
Chispy
 +
Redditor
 +
 +
 +
 +
It doesn’t matter how many times someone tells me how to do something, I learn by actually doing it myself. Being able to insert myself into a virtual reality scenario that allowed me to complete tasks would dramatically increase how quickly I learned. Plus, it would be a lot more fun and engaging.
 +
 +
As another Redditor, sprocket86 put it:
 +
“The technologies that will improve collective human intelligence are the ones that spread the most knowledge. Education is the bottleneck in society's intelligence, not brain power. If you're looking for the most promising emerging technologies, I say it's language/teaching software. AI teachers can engage in conversation and efficiently find answers and give you a personalized education. This would basically require Turing-test-level AI if you're taking class for fiction writing, philosophy, or something highly abstract, but many classes are based on fact retrieval and explanations. Imagine an interactive Khan Acadamy for anything and everything you want to learn about. Then you can start playing around with brain enhancements”
 +
sprocket86
 +
Redditor
 +
 +
Can you imagine how much smarter the collective intelligence of everyone on the planet would be if we all had access to a teacher created and run on artificial intelligence? It would be like allowing everyone to have their own tutor.
 +
 +
In conclusion, most of the future technologies that will make you smarter are a ways off. According to Ryantific_theory:
 +
 +
 +
“In the short term (next 15ish years), I'm not sure that there will be a huge impact in making people smarter. Almost everything being done now in the field is medically motivated or highly experimental, and as a result the first people to benefit will be those suffering from neurological conditions, ataxia, seizures, Parkingson's, Alzheimer's, dystonia, and the like. It's not that we don't want to make people smarter, it's just that the requisite understanding to really help with that lays well beyond the solutions to current neural problems.
 +
Likely the biggest impacts will have more to do with scientific optimization, developing and determining the best methods for people to learn, coupled with the massive spread in access to (factual) information should have a significant impact on the average level of education. That alone will be huge, if more social than technological.”
 +
 +
He goes on to say that:
 +
 +
 +
“in the future that's within sight, at this moment, the best path I can see to making humans smarter stems a lot more social factors than technological. But the cool tech factors that will help will likely involve direct stimulation of neural tissue. The problem mainly lies in the fact that from a neural standpoint we don't have a complete picture of what makes smart people smarter than less smart people, and we can't effectively experiment until we know what we're trying to do.
 +
So the biggest impact to making humans smarter will probably have more to do with changing how effective we are at learning, rather than just plugging in BRAINS++ and magically making people smarter.”
 +
 +
 +
Even though most of the benefits of these technologies won’t be seen in the near future, they’re still fun to think about. Although I’m also not sure I’d be too keen on having an implant put in my head, but I suppose if everyone else was doing it….

Communication 4.0 - New experimental communication apps (in China, the US and Europe)

Introduction

Communication derived from live conversation in presence. Lyrics and songs served to preserve communication. Later, mechanical instruments (music, paintings) started to support and enrich communication, illustrated it with visual effects and, when written script was invented, crossed the limits of time to preserve (his)stories overt time. Technology (letters, telegraph, telefax, telephone, audio recording, emails, chats, video telephone) has further enhanced communication, making written script crossing space. Today, new communication apps allow us to see and hear our conversation partner from even on the other side of the world. We will analyze the trend back to oral communication even in chat applications and explore the question, if script was only a temporary phenomenon until oral communication will be able to bridge time and space through communication apps. In the near future virtual reality will allow us to have the impression that the communication partner on the other side of the earth would actually sit right in front of us. New communication apps bring strangers together for a blind date or even sexual encounters, even touch sensors can transport more than video and audio. China, traditionally conservative and slow in making friendships in real life, is leading in the development and playful usage of communication apps. People change their communication behaviour, turning to the screen more in the US than in Europe and more in China than in the US. It is hard to get some young Chinese to look up from their smart devices, which they handle with extreme speed. China may show us our communication world of the future, including 24 hours availability and 100% surveillance.

The future is shiny. See more essential gadget pictures. Hemera/Thinkstock Fifty years ago, the tools we rely upon to communicate today were only science fiction. Today, you can purchase a smartphone and make calls, surf the Web, play games, run applications and accomplish more than most speculative fiction authors dared to dream. So what's next? In the short term, we'll likely see basic cell phones slowly fade away. As smartphones become more common and less expensive, more people will adopt them. The process is gradual. As with most new technologies, a group of enthusiastic adopters lead the way. Sometimes, the general population will follow the early pioneers -- the compact disc is a good example of such technology. In other cases, the early adopters end up owning technology that becomes obsolete without ever finding wide acceptance -- like LaserDiscs. Smartphones seem to be in the first category. Products like the Apple iPhone and Google's Android operating system have pushed the smartphone out of the world of gadget geeks and into the mass market. In 2010, the first 4G smartphone for a major carrier in the United States made an appearance. It was the HTC EVO 4G, running on Sprint's WiMAX network [source: CNET]. The 4G network allows for faster data transfer speeds than other networks. The Internet will continue to play an increasing role in communication. Voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) already plays a large role in several communication products and services. Sites like Facebook and Twitter allow users to communicate with networks of people. With the rise of the Web, people now have a platform from which they can address the world. In the past, only celebrities and politicians could address so many people at one time. Now, anyone with an Internet connection can do the same thing. This may lead to changes in everything from entertainment to politics. Using the Web as a communication tool, people with aspirations may be able to find an audience more easily than ever before. It may not be long until a relatively unknown person uses the Internet to win enough support to be elected president of the United States. So far we've looked at some fairly mundane advances in communication. But what about the distant future?

Looking Ahead to Future Communication

Future communication may combine elements of augmented reality. iStockphoto/Thinkstock One way we might see communication change in the future is through augmented reality. In an augmented-reality system, you view the world through a technological overlay. This could take the form of a hand-held device like a smartphone -- there are several augmented-reality applications already available for some phones. Another possible application is through a set of augmented-reality glasses. In either case, you can view the world around you and see real-time digital information about what you're viewing. The classic example of augmented reality is the restaurant review. You could stand in front of a restaurant and, through an augmented-reality system, read customer reviews or view the daily specials without ever walking inside. But the applications don't have to stop with locations. Augmented-reality systems might extend to people as well. Imagine looking at a stranger and seeing that person's name, Facebook profile, Twitter handle and other information. Clearly, augmented reality systems will raise concerns about privacy and safety, but such systems are already in development. Then there's video conferencing. While the technology has existed for years, video calls aren't popular in the United States. It might be because the hardware hasn't been compelling or cost-effective enough. But now webcams are starting to appear on televisions and are standard on many laptops. Are we about to enter an era of video conferencing, or is it too much work to make sure you and your house look nice before you order that pizza? One drawback to video conferencing is that it either requires you to stay in one place for the duration of the call or to hold a device so that you're visible for the whole conversation. We've become used to having a great deal of freedom while on the phone. Will we really adopt a technology that will necessitate that we keep still? Perhaps we'll use video conferencing for special occasions or short conversations. Language barriers are disappearing as well. Devices that can translate languages in real time are allowing people from different countries and cultures to communicate without the need for an interpreter. In the distant future, we may be able to communicate by sending our thoughts through a network directly into someone else's brain. We're decades away from such technology, but scientists are working on creating brain-computer interfaces that allow people to transmit thoughts directly to a computer. Perhaps 50 years from now we'll all use an electronic version of telepathy. The technology of communication evolves at a blistering pace. It may turn out that our predictions don't even scratch the surface. Only time will tell. Learn more about communication through the links on the next page. Sources • German, Kent.

We’ve all wished at one time or another that we were smarter. Maybe it’s so that you can ace that next math or physics test, or perhaps you’re just sick of losing at Trivia Crack. Whatever the reason you’d like to be smarter, read on to learn more about some future technologies that have the potential for making us all smarter human beings.


1. tCDS: transcranial Direct Current Stimulation


This technology is still in it’s infancy, but there are currently some companies selling units online. Reddit user Ryantific_theory does a great job explaining more about it: “tDCS (transcranial Direct Current Stimulation) has shown significant improvements in learning speed in a few scientific studies. To sum it up, it functions by running a weak DC (non-alternating) current across cortical regions, and producing a persistent excitability in the affected neurons, this is known as LTP (Long Term Potentiation) and is one of the hallmarks of learning. Anyway, it has potential to produce literal thinking caps, and some people have already started selling basic units for it.” Ryantific_theory Redditor So basically if you’re willing to slap some electrodes on yourself every day (or every couple of days) and zap your brain with electrical current, you could increase your intelligence without doing anything else. Want to take a look at some units currently for sale? They can be found on the following websites (LineMind.com does not have any affiliation with these providers):

https://thebrainstimulator.net/ http://www.tdcs-kit.com/ http://www.foc.us/ https://speakwisdom.wordpress.com/2012/12/09/can-a-simple-safe-tdcs-device-be-built-from-radio-shack-components/

There’s even a do-it-yourself option for those that want to get smarter on a budget.

Ryantific_theory goes on to explain that


“they're all fairly early stage, and somewhat crude overall. While there's nothing to stop you from living your life however you want, I would be somewhat cautious. If it is something that you decide to do, I would look up the lengths of time studies had it running on subjects to get an idea of what's reasonable or crazy. The review article refers to stimulation times of 9-13 minutes producing long lasting plasticity changes, and those can be maintained by stimulation once a day. The danger in overstimulating, is that you can force neural consolidation if you apply the current long enough, and it would lock in whatever neurons happen to be in the current path with unpredictable, if relatively minor, consequences. So just say no to overstimulation.”


2. Neuromodulation: Deep Brain Stimulation

Deep brain stimulation involves implanting a “brain pacemaker” directly into the brain. This brain pacemaker would then send electrical impulses to different regions of the brain, thereby influencing how the brain responds. It’s current applications are all for medical reasons like Parkinsons disease, major depressive disorder and obsessive compulsive disorder among a few others. According to Ryantific_theory:


“Neuromodulation (Deep Brain Stimulation) will become massively important as the implementation reaches continually higher and higher resolutions, and is applied beyond Parkingson's and the few other select conditions it's currently used for. Conceptualize the fact that everything you are exists as a series of electrical impulses in your skull, as we decode more and more of the neural code, we will eventually create implants that give us an unprecedented control over our own mind. Ethically, this is a major issue, because if you can turn motivation, happiness, satisfaction, desire, and interest on and off at will, where do we draw the line? For people struggling with anxiety or depression, or anything they don't like, we will have the technology to allow people to fundamentally change themselves. Stimulation of the hippocampus has been shown to also potentially help improve memory formation and recall. Ultimately the idea of an implanted neural net with a number of connections to critical areas seems likely, but directly offloading memories and other sci-fi tropes is deep, deep future. DARPA happens to be working on a internal display that takes advantage of the accessability of the V1 cortex, and exact visuo-spacial mapping to put a "perceived" display into visual space, which basically amounts to a screen shown on your internal representation of visual space. Normally I'd write it off as another far flung hope, but they're actually developing tech to make it possible, and recently developed with the U of Wisc a graphene optoelectric stimulating recorder. Which is sweet.”


Although he also states applications that would make a person smarter are perhaps 20 years away and I know you need help with Trivia Crack sooner than that. I also think it’s worth reiterating a striking comment from above: “Conceptualize the fact that everything you are exists as a series of electrical impulses in your skull.” You know that hoarder cat lady down the street? Or what about that really ugly sweater your grandma thought you would love for Christmas. It’s all a result of a series of electrical impulses in the brain. Damn, things sure do easily go awry.


3. Changes in Education and Access to Education


The final future technology that will make us smarter won’t necessarily be technology itself, but rather it’s application in the education process. As Redditor Chispy stated: “Virtual and augmented reality will allow for cheap and efficient methods of visual learning. Couple it with repetitive learning strategies, and you can easily 'Gamify' Education, and make learning happen through aspiration and collaboration.” Chispy Redditor


It doesn’t matter how many times someone tells me how to do something, I learn by actually doing it myself. Being able to insert myself into a virtual reality scenario that allowed me to complete tasks would dramatically increase how quickly I learned. Plus, it would be a lot more fun and engaging.

As another Redditor, sprocket86 put it: “The technologies that will improve collective human intelligence are the ones that spread the most knowledge. Education is the bottleneck in society's intelligence, not brain power. If you're looking for the most promising emerging technologies, I say it's language/teaching software. AI teachers can engage in conversation and efficiently find answers and give you a personalized education. This would basically require Turing-test-level AI if you're taking class for fiction writing, philosophy, or something highly abstract, but many classes are based on fact retrieval and explanations. Imagine an interactive Khan Acadamy for anything and everything you want to learn about. Then you can start playing around with brain enhancements” sprocket86 Redditor

Can you imagine how much smarter the collective intelligence of everyone on the planet would be if we all had access to a teacher created and run on artificial intelligence? It would be like allowing everyone to have their own tutor.

In conclusion, most of the future technologies that will make you smarter are a ways off. According to Ryantific_theory:


“In the short term (next 15ish years), I'm not sure that there will be a huge impact in making people smarter. Almost everything being done now in the field is medically motivated or highly experimental, and as a result the first people to benefit will be those suffering from neurological conditions, ataxia, seizures, Parkingson's, Alzheimer's, dystonia, and the like. It's not that we don't want to make people smarter, it's just that the requisite understanding to really help with that lays well beyond the solutions to current neural problems. Likely the biggest impacts will have more to do with scientific optimization, developing and determining the best methods for people to learn, coupled with the massive spread in access to (factual) information should have a significant impact on the average level of education. That alone will be huge, if more social than technological.”

He goes on to say that:


“in the future that's within sight, at this moment, the best path I can see to making humans smarter stems a lot more social factors than technological. But the cool tech factors that will help will likely involve direct stimulation of neural tissue. The problem mainly lies in the fact that from a neural standpoint we don't have a complete picture of what makes smart people smarter than less smart people, and we can't effectively experiment until we know what we're trying to do. So the biggest impact to making humans smarter will probably have more to do with changing how effective we are at learning, rather than just plugging in BRAINS++ and magically making people smarter.”


Even though most of the benefits of these technologies won’t be seen in the near future, they’re still fun to think about. Although I’m also not sure I’d be too keen on having an implant put in my head, but I suppose if everyone else was doing it…. Copyright © 2016 LoneMind.
