Wouldn't learning be a lot easier if we could just implant knowledge into our brains? While this may seem impossible, new research suggests that it could soon be a reality! Scientists have found that when we learn, pictures gradually form in our brains. This requires hours of practice, but over time, a memory or skill is acquired. Using new technology, scientists have managed to monitor brain activity to locate the areas of brain which respond to learning. Using this information, they have been able to artificially stimulate the brain, and as a result, improved a person's performance in certain tasks. Not only that, but the test subjects were totally unaware that they were being taught anything, making learning completely effortless! Although the experiment has only worked on one area of the brain, scientists are hopeful that this method could enhance various skills, such as athletic ability. However, critics warn that the power to plant thoughts into the brain is an extremely hazardous tool, and if it were to be used irresponsibly, it could have very serious consequences.

Перевод:

Разве обучение не было бы намного проще, если бы мы могли просто имплантировать знания в наш мозг? Хотя это может показаться невозможным, новые исследования показывают, что вскоре это может стать реальностью! Учёные обнаружили, что, когда мы учимся, в нашем мозгу постепенно формируются картинки. Это требует многих часов практики, но со временем приобретается память или навык. Используя новую технологию, учёным удалось отслеживать активность мозга, чтобы определить области мозга, которые реагируют на обучение. Используя эту информацию, они смогли искусственно стимулировать мозг и, как следствие, улучшить работоспособность человека при выполнении определенных задач. Мало того, испытуемые совершенно не осознавали, что их чему-то учат, что делало обучение совершенно лёгким! Хотя эксперимент затронул только одну область мозга, учёные полны надежд, что этот метод может улучшить различные навыки, например, спортивные способности. Однако критики предупреждают, что способность внедрять мысли в мозг — чрезвычайно опасный инструмент, и, если его будет использовано безответственно, это может иметь очень серьёзные последствия.
