Even if thinking about a bear isn’t enough to show that you want to copy and paste something. Intel still thinks that there’s a future in using your brain instead of the keyboard.

　　“If we can get to the point where you can accurately find specific words, you could mentally type, ” he added. “You could compose characters or words by thinking about letters flashing on the screen or typing whole words rather than their individual characters. ”

　　While this may all sound impractical for present time, Intel thinks that it’s possible and something we’ll all want.

　　“I think human beings are unusually adaptive, ” said Andrew Chien, vice president of research and director of future technologies research at Intel Labs. “If you told people 20 years ago that they would be carrying computers all the time, they would have said, ‘I don’t want that. I don’t need that. ’Now you can’t get them to stop carrying devices. There are a lot of things that have to be done first, but I think implanting chips into human brains is well within the scope of possibility. ”

　　Make good use of your favorite mouse and keyboard set-up before they’re old-fashioned. (427W)
