Misleading people in the name of opinion is unethical and should be avoided at all cost. If you feel strongly about an opinion, test it out within safety and ethical boundaries.
Brain-Computer Interfaces: The Next Frontier for Human-Computer Interaction?
Whilst the full implications of these advancements are being debated, policies to guide the use of such are yet to be crafted – either because as is often the case innovation leapfrogs policy and governance or because the general implications of these advancements are yet to be fully understood or appreciated, one wonders if these advancements wouldn’t lead to further divide amongst the world’s population, similar to the digital divide occasioned by the evolution of digital.
Writings of Mr Richard Dawkins
Mr Richard Dawkins is all at once witty, entertaining and almost accurate in his writings.
Wondering where to start? Or which of his works perhaps captures the whole essence of Mr Dawkins’ life’s work? Perhaps his 2019 long essay may be an enjoyable, if informative read and starting point.
Conversations: A live conversation and podcast series

And I often leave comments on people’s opinions, social/economic/religious developments and whatever else crosses the path of my fancy. Oftentimes, these get […]
