Holy snap, it's happening. The cyborgs are coming.
 
Hot damn. xD
I don't know whether to be impressed or afraid.
 
...whoa.

I mean, that sums it up nicely.
 
Excellent, my plans to become a robot has suddenly become more realistic.
 
Holy shit on a rat-powered stick.

Can you guys say Cybermen?

This is freaking amazing, gotta love science. (sometimes)
 
That is extremely impressive, I don't know how I feel on the whole cyborg issue, but I do understand the importance of this.
 
Now here's my question; the robot is powered by a rat's brain cells, and it decides where it wants to go in order to avoid hitting anything. It makes the choice for itself. Limited intelligence? Awareness?
 
I don't know, I'm not sure how aware it can be, unless it is just extremely panicked. The way it was moving made me question how conscious the rat was.
 
Pretty spectacular to say the least, I wonder where this will end up going.
 
That's neat. I wonder what's next? However, it gives a whole new definition to "Look Ma, No Hands."
 
Transportation of the soul to a new body. Interesting, But I somehow don't think this would lead to positive results. Milatiries would love something like this. The only kind of creation I can think out of this idea are humanized killer machines. But lets hope I turn out to be wrong.

Anyway, one question's running through my head. Now that there's a robotic body to transport to, would it mean that its possible to live forever? Since it's obviously durable to diseases. Being made out of steel and all... Or did I misunderstand the whole of idea of what this machine does?
