The NSA might flag me for this but... What is DARPA up to right

Why don't you ask them.

I think they are working on ghost in the shell technology by now.

I wonder if they have a cloaking technology program...

Is this thread bumping?

>>7753876
okay thanks anon, I just can't bump my own thread but other people can... that's good.

Cloaking device.

Well, if your talking about prosthetics or cyber augments expect to see at least some major advance in the next twenty years. I would be surprised if we didnt have full on prosthetic bodys by 2030. But really it's probably space tech and lasers right now.

>>7753895
I'm excited to swap out this flesh body with a durable robotic one. The only problem I can see once all the coordination is solved is that my mind could possibly get hacked depending on how I interface with the prosthetic body. Or even if hacking is advanced enough to hack minds someone might be able to take control away form my prosthetic body.

Wait, What? was an extraordinary forum on future technologies that took place recently in St. Louis. Hosted by DARPA and rooted in what’s already happening in today’s fastest evolving research fields, Wait, What? was a crucible for generating new ideas, with the goal of stretching current conceptual horizons and accelerating the development of novel capabilities in the years and decades ahead. You can view videos of most of the presentations by visiting www.darpawaitwhat.com, going to the Schedule, and clicking on the talk or session you want to watch.

>>7753891
That might be useful for hiding large objects in a three-dimensional space, like underwater, or in orbit, but it does not seem useful beyond that.

>>7753909
I'm imagining tanks, planes, and ships being cloaked this way with a more durable polymer that mimics the qualities of light.

>>7753912
>polymer that mimics light
I mean mimics the qualities of glass. See once I have my cybernetic implants I won't make typos like that.

>>7753897
Your thinking about the progaming only. At the end of the day its still a human (or human conscious) thats digital. Im sure that once we figure out how the digitalization of a human works, and we get someone in there, we can figure out the rest in the digital world (this applies to prosthetics too). And as for hacking a human ( in either sense) i belive this is purely science fiction. You cant mind slave someone at the snap of your fingers ( at least i dont think you can), why would it applie to the digital world?

Working for DARPA means you decide who to give money to. The groups doing the actual R&D are various research labs and companies that submit proposals. My lab has a big DARPA funded project.

>>7753915
Uh the article related is literally lenses set up so that the inside of a persons fingers don't show up. I don't know why you're referring to higher-durability polymers. Low durability isn't a bottleneck for this technology, the bottleneck is that it requires specific conditions to work, i.e. an object put between the lenses, and the object must have some sort of orifice through which the light can pass.

What I don't understand now is why they haven't integrated this technique with cameras so that the object cloaked need not have a hole through which light must pass. I wonder if a huge lens is more costly than a huge screen.

>>7753927
Oh, I was imagining this systems of lenses on the outside of a tank cloaking it in battle and since it would be the outer most layer it would have to be pretty durable.

>>7753924
Too add more, any prosthetic body or augment worth a damn will cost quite a bit. So if your dream is to acuire this tech be ready to sell yourself to the government ( a good way to garentee something like this, especially if your young is to go into the military. Like SF or CO) or some other organization that will pay for it.

>>7753926
Are you allowed to talk about what you are working on?
>>7753924
Well I know of other ways to "hack" a persons mind like torture and drug therapy and brain washing.

A direct cybernetic hack would just cut out the middle ware of brainwashing to interface with the goings on of the brain.

If it exists in the physical or has a connection to the physical then the physical can have an effect on it.

Speaking of government research, I heard the NSA has a shit ton of classified mathematical discoveries that are decades ahead of modern mathematics. How likely is this?

>>7753937
my theory is that the phenomenon of the soul is a physical one, not spiritual.

>>7753939
Likely, DARPAs technology has historically been 20-30 years ahead of what the public has access to. Most government agencies hoard these things to get an edge on the enemy/peasants.

>>7753943
it's funny how much attitudes towards conspiracy theories and other tinfoil hat related things have changed in recent years. snowden revelations really changed perceptions on what's possible

>>7753937
Touture does not work, go ask >>/k/ and they will give you all kinds of examples of it failing. As for the other two things, they're more of persuasion techniques than anything else. Now you could hack the hardware if were talking about prosthetics, but that implies that they can conect wirelessly to things. But the human controling them would essentially just be taking a backseat during the ordeal, not being directly hacked.

I don't think there's anything that will stop the inevitable renaissance in mind control technology or the very long reach that arm will have.

I think the only real long term hope against becoming a drone is to have a fully synthetic brain that you can protect with increasingly complex encryption you develop using your increased cognitive abilities as a machine.

No, just like those with mind control devices installed will not be able to will themselves to do things free of this control.

Well they can still get to me with inhale-ables like nanomachines. That's why I need a synthetic brain that isn't connected externally in anyway like the human brain. Even then it'll be really hard to combat nanomachines designed to interface with my brains particular hardware. Inevitably everything will be assimilated.

>>7753937
>Are you allowed to talk about what you are working on?

Yes, there are no NDAs for the kind of stuff I'm doing. I'd guess that the majority of DARPA projects are the same. We're a lab at a university, and we publish and publicize what we're working on all the time.

>>7754009
Of course the nanomachines would have to build a mind control device and middle ware to interface with whatever architecture housing my consciousness so I could create a nano-synthetic "immune system" to destroy all forien devices created in my systems and even have monitors to keep on a look out for them in my systems.

Synthetic bodies are so vastly superior to organic bodies. evolution, that's what it's all about.

>>7754015

>>7754015
But then someone could just invent the nanomachine version of HIV and shut your immune system down and they would be able to take over your brain again.

No I think I'm right in saying that inevitably everything will be assimilated under the control of one entity. oh well

hopefully I didn't scare everyone off with my tin foil hat talk about mind control and nano machines and cyborg brains.

darpa...

dunno but the heatwave...may be a small nuclear explosion, nuclear-->slow release radiant heat conversion-->re absorption.

Darpa and PIN= Pindar

>>7754031
it will be fed to you via your nostrils.

I heard some of the bad guys in the u.s are boycotting russian medicine. so dont order from russia. Not that its bad because it can be excellent grade. but some of the inner circle of trust within the feds are more than willing to say russia is sending toxic products.

>>7753937
Have you ever enjoyed a fed torture session? Well it goes back to mk ultra.

Brainwashing is done via TV by hijacking the signal reception and adding a layer of static enabled hypnographs. This technique ran rampant post 9-11.

>>7754052
Pindar is a supposed fictional person that has control over every nuclear arsenal in the face of this planet. A secured and insured, bonded person. The worst possible way.

>>7754063
>Have you ever enjoyed a fed torture session?

No what is that?

The rest of your post is tin foil bullshit though, you'd sound more credible if you said they were broadcasting brainwaves.

>>7754069
he's part robot. brought back from the dead.

>>7754063
as for the static thing...its strong enough to induce nerve damage.

this thread has been hijacked by tin foil shit posters *sigh*

>>7754073
they've been broadcasting brainwaves since 2000. around same time the broke the genome. small silicon receptors suspended in gel or glycerol. become attached to the scalp. they react very bad to solar rays. they use it with special hypno gram software. but static is the norm right now.

fictional legend says he was a bad son of a bitch. and got penalized. so he worked in the nuclear armament. which is a death penalty all by itself. he just got accustomed to that living and no one is as crazy as him.

>>7754090
my god, does the government know about pindar?

>>7754088
"plausible"

>>7754090
legend has it that he likes taking people to see their funeral. when you have that dream pindar is near. he was born to death. and is a skin walker. after every job he picks up a different body.

>>7754108
pindar sounds spooky. has does he keep getting new bodies and controlling all these nukes?

>>7754108
story is, that they don't like him, very much. but is the person for the job. he died once. they brought a small piece of plutonium orange and tied him down and let the whole house burn. story caught stream within some sectors and a level 1, time traveler brought him back to life. Supposedly his sin was only, thinking how to stash away uranium.

this threads topic is DARPA and what it's working on.

Let's get back on track

PROSTHETICS how advanced will they get? will they surpass organic limbs?

>>7754115
nope. there is something around the edges of self perceptual memory--> nuclear memory. he's been around nuclear energy, the energy of life. he changes after every contract and every day that passes the nuclear energy forges a new identity.

>>7754124
I wouldn't talk about darpa matter. i wouldn't even know half the shit those guys do.

>>7754135
radiation is an awesome field dont know too much about it. but i heard creepy shit. like there being a machine you can go into. that measures certain energies...and it can tap into the mind of whoever is thinking about you and make moving pictures of their surrounding and memory.

they have a viable, working, cloaking technology. The current focus is improving/blurring the edge lines. As the object moves through the atmosphere there is an outline shimmer. (The objects are fucking huge too, not your average 747 size).

Nice pop sci

You know there are people like you who always seem to look down on the smart, creative beings. Yet always take their information. It's like corporate spying. It must be going on a lot if society not even part of it starts behaving a certain way.

>>7754588
It's like that old joke between Saint Peter and a Rabbi. A rabbi by the name of Judas, goes to Peter and says. Peter, I have 2 sheep for you, give me 2 coins for them. Peter says, none sense, why would I want to buy sheep, if i have plenty. But if you want I'll take your 2 coins.

>>7754599
some people want the money or the juice out of something. not the friendship.

>>7754599
Judas throws a tantrum and mocks Peter. Tells Peter what he is going to die from. So Judas called Peter, the sneak.

>>7754632
This is why we celebrate Hanukkah and Christmas. In the old times Jews dressed up the middle candle in the menorah as Jesus. And Christians dressed up a tree with decorations called Judases and they were many.

>>7754636
i know this has nothing to do with science. but there is a little fact. Christians decorated trees, with decorations that symbolized every soul killed and recently deceased from the community. So they could be raised/resurrected closer to God.

The same could be said for normal PC use and viruses. Yet, it is still done because it is big money.

Imagine getting your eyes hacked and needing to pay a ransom in bitcoin to some random Russian organization. That is done constantly with HDDs and the files they contain.

People would hack for profit/advertising, political agenda, and 100 other stupid reasons.

In terms on innovation, the NSA is probably behind the private sector. Where the fuck do you think they get their mathematicians and technology? From universities, just like everyone else does, and from manufacturers, just like everyone else does.

People going around saying "the NSA is the all-seeing all-powerful big brother, fear it!!1!!" piss me off.

The NSA is part of the government. It's inefficient and there is a mile high stack of red tape everywhere, nothing is done without multiple people approving it. To the people who think that the NSA is watching them, or tracking the movements of all Americans, let me tell that they have not the resources nor the fucks to give to monitor American civilians, when their job is to keep an eye on the rest of the world and their degenerate fucktards.

>>7755323
Their entire job is National Security, hence the name. Security concerns outside the US is for the CIA and military. Crime inside the US is what the FBI handles as well as the SBI's for each state

Well there are thousands of self programming AIs you need to be more specific. In computer science you take a class and make it a parent class and then tell the program to make a bunch of copies of those frames with specific attributes. So yes; code can write code and any amateur can write the code to do so. You need to be more specific when you say self programming because there have been millions of self programming AIs made.
