"Knowledge Injections"

This morning I woke up and this strange idea popped straight into my head. I thought if you could make syringes full of a liquid or DNA of some sort that makes you smarter and gives you a boost of knowledge on any subject e.g history, maths, science. Instead of going to school just get a jab and go straight to work.
If scientists could really make something like that it would be revolutionairy, but they probably won't. Or you could have those cool little chips that you put in your neck and teaches you how to do kung fu and stuff.

Wouldn't it be good to just get an injection instead of wasting 12 years of your life at school. Unless your scared of needles of course.

Still in the Matrix

Actually your wrong it isnt from the Matrix as they programmed into his mind and even that wont work unless you had some adapter which might be created in like 200 years. Also no one would let you use it for education it would be used with people that were found in the newly found jungly 200 years in the future.

It is from Matrix actually

But then again knowledge is stored using organic compounds accessed through, as I have said, electrical signals. If you could take those memory organisms out of someone who had learnt it and then transplanted them into someone elses brain then they could be accessed electronically too. At least I think that makes sense, not being a medical man I wouldn't know.

Plus it would be too expensive (me thinks) to insrt and make a microchip for everyone in the world.

Its not the Matrix mate and knowledge means you have to learn it and your brain needs to pick up on it so you cant inject it.

the microchip would probably be the size of a football stadium

Your brain works entirely through electrical signals and if you made a microchip, filled it with information and gave it some kind of electronic stimulator theoritically, once implanted in your brain it could send electrical signals through it full of knowledge. Unfortunately the hardware and software required are well beyond the reach of modern technological research.

not had another full frontal lobotomy have ya?

You can't just inject knowledge.

Butyou can inject whatver tho.

Your all acting like strangers, going to bedd.
