The tech isn't really there to do anything complicated with it. Not now and not for a long time.

:ehh:

Are you in the medical field or a scientist that has knowledge on this specific topic? I'd love to hear more about how there isn't any real room to do anything complex with this.

I'm in biomedical engineering. We're at the point now where reading vitals and things of that nature would be of great value as far as detecting irregularities (blood pressure/heart rate) but those are things that we can already do outside of the body. Sticking a probe that goes through the skin and exposed to air that does the same thing isn't practical and might be prone to infection so getting it under the skin is the path you'd want to go towards. You can look up deep brain stimulation to see how they can regulate overstimulated parts of the brain with implants in order to reduce Parkinson's symptoms. Even then that's just firing electrical signals to stimulate neurons in the brain. Something like recording someone's vision or making them think things is just way beyond our comprehension. The human body is practically an alien supercomputer. We know how it does things for the most part nowadays but controlling or recording it 1:1 is gonna require legitimate magic or a computer from the very far future.

The main thing to be worried about with these chips is companies purchasing your health information and using it to discriminate based on those grounds.
