What if we could use the internet in our brains I theorize that we could use laser to tell our brain what to see and how to do it use YouTube in your head and the tiny machine is send the electricity from your brain then decides where on the internet to go take stuff from your brain and send it to the internet I just came up with this theory tell me what you think.

Computer hacking would have much higher stakes.

Output signals alone are risky:

If this were possible we would be able to watch a 2 hour movie in the mater of seconds. The only thing wrong with that theory is that computers speak a different language than our brain. Computers only have 2 words on and off. Where our brain speaks in neurons. And no one knows exactly how our brain processes information. Only that the words are neurons. There could be thousands of different kinds nuerons I think. Correct me if I'm wrong for I am only experienced in programming with computers not brains lol.

After reading over this thread, I've decided to throw in my two cents.

 

HPositive, the idea of sending thoughts and information from your brain to the internet could actually be related to another hypothetical process known as mind uploading- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind_uploading

 

Either way it's a fascinating idea that you have, and after reading the article provided by Endy0816, who knows? Maybe we'll be approaching a technology that will allow such an idea to become reality.
