3 animal brains form mind-melded computer

[Still Waters]

Two heads are better than one, and three monkey brains can control an avatar better than any single monkey. For the first time, a team has networked the brains of multiple animals to form a living computer that can perform tasks and solve problems.

Interesting to say the least. I wonder what it would be like if we linked every human mind on the planet together through some type of neural net device?

That is beyond awesome that they can bundle up some monkeys and rats and make a merged super-brain. I imagine they can try this with different species too, although in the experiments they kept species together in their own groups. That is scary in the realm of human science to think that this may some day be what humans could do. To a certain extent, there are some people who already do this sort of thing in the tasks they set upon themselves, but to truly merge several people's brains together for whatever reasons is a thing I would never want to participate in. This could be where those greys started before they became an insect, commie species without individuals.
