One has to be careful about neuro-hype, however
invasive brain-computer interfaces are un/likely to have
widespread impacts on identity within a 15-year
horizon. Also, non-invasive interfaces, such as various
brain-scanning techniques, could have important effects
for detecting
(say deception - you just can't lie any more not
even to yourself)
So what about your neural privacy? for al those young uns
just starting out?
Brain scanning technologies might have effects
on public perception through fears about loss of neural privacy and as a result of mistaken “neurohype”.
The aged: A long lived, multigenerational society:
Longer lifespans will lead to changes in how people regard
their identity as aged people, as well as increased diversity
in how age-related aspects of identity are managed and in
cultural expectations.
Intergenerational conflicts can erupt if institutions and
social norms do not adapt to a
generationally, culturally and technologically diverse society
