Russian oligarchs want to invest in the creation of cyborgs

Mikhail Rogachev, Executive Director of ONEXIM Innovation Group, gave an interview to the Kommersant newspaper, in which he shared his vision of the development of the innovation business, as well as the intentions of his boss, the famous oligarch, billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov.

It turns out that the richest people in Russia are already thinking about cyberpunk. Here is a fragment from this interview.

“In his reports, Mikhail Prokhorov presented his vision of development prospects. Humanity needs to eat and drink well and cheaply, be safe and move from one place to another with minimal costs. These needs are not fully met.

Almost all the ideas that science fiction writers have written have already been implemented. The idea of ​​teleportation has not yet been realized. Another idea is the improvement of a person, that is, practically the merging of a person with a machine. Increase the life of a person, and active life. This solves two problems at once: a state one — a larger amount of labor appears — and a universal one. Modern retirees do not seek retirement, they want to lead an active lifestyle. And again, the creative person to retire should still be driven out. But you need to keep active, light brains. And to have them, you need to have a good body. We have absolutely stunning decisions related to sports and rehabilitation medicine, for example, trans-electrocranial stimulation, which increases the production of endorphins in the body - “happiness hormones”. ”
