Scientists predict: In the future, computer viruses will infect the human brain

The British Daily Post reported that at present, the field of "synthetic biology" is still in its infancy. We can regulate the genes of life forms. It is only 2010 that billionaire entrepreneur Craig Venter successfully nurtured. "Artificial life - Cynthia." Experts working in this field believe that the field of synthetic biology will accelerate development in the future, but some people also warn that this trend may be out of control, and it is likely that future hackers will be able to develop new types of computer viruses to infect the human brain.

Andrew Hessel, of NASA's research institution Singularity University, is the head of the research. He warns that in the future, hackers may design viruses or bacteria that control the human brain. He believes that genetic engineering is the next frontier of computer development and one of the most powerful science and technology in the world. In the future, bacteria may be used as a living computer, and DNA may be used as a programming language. I hope to see life processes and be used to solve global challenges so that humans can achieve sustainable development relationships within the biosphere. Synthetic biology is developing very fast and its development speed will exceed computer technology.

Hessel predicted that we could "print" DNA in the future, and even be able to decode DNA molecules. But he also warned at the TXM technology conference that computer viruses and bacteria developed by computer hackers can enter the human brain in a chemical form and can be used to infect or even "control" humans.

These viruses will be injected into the "host" in the form of vaccines to control the behavior of the host. Hessel warned that in the future we may have to learn how to resist and counter these synthetic biological weapons.

Security expert Marc Goodman said: "Synthetic biology will lead to the formation of new bioterrorism. Today's biological crimes are similar to computer crimes of the 1980s. Few people at first were able to identify these problems. But they will grow exponentially."

When last year billionaire Wendt “created life” by adding synthetic DNA to bacterial cells, Professor Julian Savulescu, an ethicist at the University of Oxford, England, said: “Winter has opened up human history. A door of far-reaching significance will potentially shed light on the fate of human development, but in the future it may also be used to develop the most powerful chemical and biological weapons in the world. This is like challenging to try to eat fruit without swallowing insects."

Hessell is full of confidence in the development prospect of synthetic biology. It is reported that this scientist has already done vasectomy. This is because he never trusts natural reproduction methods. He said that we are developing artificial genes and it will realize organic organisms. Body cloning and making human reproduction more sophisticated.
