Katie "Eventually, we'll find just the right tech and algorithms that enable us to download education directly into the learning parts of our brains. Then playing that Mozart's 5th Symphony won't take 10 years to learn, but 10 seconds to sync and start playing. Imagine how much time we we might save? Sure, our kids won't have much discipline or a love of learning new things, but they'll sure know French grammar (and Chinese, Russian, and Arabic perfectly too)."

So without love and discipline in their lives....what will their life look like? What will they value? And what about the health hazards of chips? Health problems will develop because of radio frequencies and batteries....I've already read about these problems. So creating the perfect technological child is more important than their health? What kind of of character or moral values you you envision for this transhuman world? I'm not being snarky, I truly am trying to understand what you are trying to promote because a lot of it makes no sense at all.
