我是人类（2019）

目前的实验中
In the current experiment,
我们有两个人在不同的房♥间
we have two subjects in two different rooms,
进行着20个问答游戏
playing a game of 20 questions.
最大的区别是
The big difference is that the two people asking
尚特尔帕特博士 神经科学家 华盛顿大学
他们的问答都是通过
and answering questions are doing so using only signals
脑部信♥号♥♥来完成
from their brains.
经颅磁刺♥激♥准备完毕
TMS is armed.
分类上是动物
The category is animals.
有8个可选答案
There are eight possible answers.
数据良好
Data is looking good.
继续
Let's go ahead.
你可以答第一题了
You can send the first question.
答案是 是
The answer is yes.
很好
Excellent.
不论他们是在同一个房♥间
It doesn't matter if they're in the same room
还是相隔万里
or on the other side of the world.
我们可以提取一方脑部信息
We can extract the information from one brain,
传输到可以编码到
transmit it to a device that can encode
另一方脑部的设备上
information into another brain.
错
No.
最终 这项科技的目标
Ultimately,the goal of this technology
是为了提升人类体验
is to improve the human experience.
在没有语言的前提下
To offer up the possibility of sharing
把我脑中的内容 情感状态
the contents of my mind, my emotional state
分享到另一个人脑中
into somebody else, without words.
当我们可以突破语言界线
When we can understand someone
来理解他人的时候
without the barrier of different languages,
我们之间就会更加亲近
we could start to blur the boundaries between us.
全世界的人
We could start to see the whole world
从此都能够
as members of our tribe
同心同德
and have more empathy and compassion for them.
很难预见
It's always really hard in advance to know
社会是否正处于转折点
when you're at a turning point in society,
妮塔法拉哈尼博士 法律与哲学教授 杜克大学
当科技具有改革能力的时候
when technology is gonna be so transformative
一切都会改变
that everything will change.
但问题在于 我们现在到这个点了吗
And the question is, are we there right now?
我们会从根本上
Are we about to fundamentally change
改变人类吗
what it means to be human?
如果是的话
And if so,
我们能接受吗
are we okay with that?
安全测试
Safety test.
第二视觉实验室
智能设备史蒂芬植入
Stephen's implant is a brilliant device
主要有两个部分
that essentially has two components.
一个缝在眼周的环
A band that's sewn around the eye
上面带有60个电极去刺♥激♥视网膜
with 60 electrodes on it that stimulate the retina.
戴上眼镜
Glasses on.
还有一副
And a pair of glasses
带有摄像机
with a video camera on it
可以无限传输图案
that sends images wirelessly
到眼球表面的电极
to the electrodes on the surface of the eyeball.
开始
Beginning.
这些图片会沿着
Those images then travel along
人体的视神经传送到脑部
the natural pathway of the optic nerve to the brain.
电极激活
Electrodes activated.
连接成功
You have good connection.
现在我们要激活你的设备
We're gonna activate your device.
关灯
Light off.
把灯开到最亮
Big light on please.
请用游戏手柄
Respond yes or no as to whether
来回答
you're able to perceive something or not
你是否能感受到些什么
using the game controller.
好的
Okay.
我们需要了解你体内的电极
So we wanna see how much stimulation
需要多少刺♥激♥
each of your electrodes needs.
好
Right.
发送刺♥激♥信♥号♥♥
Sending stimulation.
我看到了闪光
I see something flashing.
好的 收到
Got it, okay.
又有一个闪光
Another flash.
好
Okay.
看起来变亮了吗
Does it seem any brighter?
太亮了
Too bright.
重置
Reset.
好的 那我稍微
Okay then I'm just gonna tweak
调下设置
some settings a little bit.
继续感受最后的电极
Go ahead and respond to this last electrode.
哦
Oh.
很微弱 我能看到一点手 对
Very faintly, I can see a bit of the hand, yeah.
很好
That's good.
继续扫描看看
Go ahead and scan and see
你能感知到什么
what you are able to perceive.
左边 右边
You know, to the left, to the right.
什么都没有
There's nothing there.
没错我什么都没看到
Yeah I'm not picking up anything.
稍微调节一下
Doing some adjustments right now.
发送刺♥激♥信♥号♥♥
Setting stimulation.
哦
Oh!
我看到了
I see something there.
好的
Okay.
我是说 我看到那边有一点轮廓
I see, I mean, I've got the silhouette right there.
好的
Okay.
启动
Trigger.
继续
Continue responding.
我看到你了
I see you.
没搞错吧
Am I right?
好久不见了 史蒂芬
It's been a long time, Stephen.
丹妮斯吗
Denise?
是我
Yes.
你现在就在看着我
You're looking right at me.
不好意思
Sorry.
太棒了 史蒂芬
That's huge, Stephen.
感觉特别好
It's a nice feeling.
太好了
That's great.
读一下
Read that.
好
Okay.
我在这看到了一些东西
I see something there.
我相信他会越来越好的
I think he'll get out more, he'll do more,
他会跟人们交流
he'll meet people.
我看到她就在我面前
Okay I see her right in front of me.
这会帮他打开一个新的世界
It'll open up a whole new world.
就是她
It's her.
没错
Exactly.
天啊 丹妮斯 你都老了
My, Denise, how you've grown.
我们的希望是病人们能大致看到物体
The hope is our patients see edges of objects,
地铁上的空位 人体的线条
empty seats on subways, the outlines of people.
甚至是烟花
Even fireworks.
但是随着技术不断地进步
But as the technology's been improving,
他们会看到更多
they see more and more.
可以无限
There's no limit to how much you could
放大物体
crank up the magnification
和我们能看到的细节
and what sort of details we could potentially see.
虽然我们目前所拥有的假眼
Right now, the prosthetic eyes that we have
阿古斯二代 VS 人的视觉
还远远不及人眼
are not anywhere near as good as human eyes,
但是它们会越来越好
but eventually they'll be better.
为什么我们不给它们加上红外线技术
And why couldn't we add infrared vision to them,
或者紫外线技术呢
or UV vision to them?
所以我们最新的
So one of the latest experiments
实验项目之一就是
that we've been working on is
