the group wrote.<\/p>\n<div class=\" mco-body-item mco-body-type-text\">\n<p class=\"element element-paragraph\">But it\u2019s after the year 2050 that the implications of cyborg capabilities become concerning.<\/p>\n<div class=\" mco-body-item mco-body-type-text\">\n<p class=\"element element-paragraph\">&#8220;Introduction of augmented human beings into the general population, DoD active-duty personnel, and near-peer competitors will accelerate in the years following 2050 and will lead to imbalances, inequalities, and inequities in established legal, security, and ethical frameworks,\u201d the summary reads.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\" mco-body-item mco-body-type-text\">\n<p class=\"element element-paragraph\">The study group proposed seven recommendations, listed in no particular order, for Pentagon leaders to consider:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\" mco-body-item mco-body-type-list\">\n<ul class=\"element-ul\">\n<li>The military should take a second look at the global and societal perception of human-machine augmentation. Americans typically imagine China or Russia developing runaway technologies because of a lack of ethical concerns, but \u201cthe attitudes of our adversaries toward these technologies have never been verified,&#8221; researchers wrote.<\/li>\n<li>U.S. political leaders should use forums like NATO to discuss how cyborg advancements could impact interoperability between allied forces during operations.<\/li>\n<li>The Pentagon should start investing in legal, security and ethical frameworks to anticipate emerging technologies and better prepare for their impact. Leaders should support policies that \u201cprotect individual privacy, sustain security, and manage personal and organizational risk, while maximizing defined benefits to the United States and its allies and assets,\u201d the study group wrote.<\/li>\n<li>Military leaders should also work to reverse the \u201cnegative cultural narratives of enhancement technologies.\u201d It\u2019s no secret that science fiction\u2019s depiction of cyborg technologies revolves around dystopian futures. Transparency in how the military adopts this technology will help to alleviate concerns, while capitalizing on benefits, according to the study group.<\/li>\n<li>The Pentagon should use wargames to gauge the impact of asymmetric biotechnologies on tactics, techniques and procedures. DoD personnel can support this through targeted intelligence assessments of the emerging field.<\/li>\n<li>A whole-of-nation, not whole-of-government, approach to cyborg technologies is preferred. As it stands, \u201cfederal and commercial investments in these areas are uncoordinated and are being outpaced by Chinese research and development,\u201d the study group wrote. If Chinese firms dominate the commercial sector, the U.S. defense sector will also be at a disadvantage.<\/li>\n<li>Finally, the long-term safety concerns and the impact of these technologies on people should be monitored closely.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\" mco-body-item mco-body-type-text\">\n<p class=\"element element-paragraph\">\u201cThe benefits afforded by human\/machine fusions will be significant and will have positive quality-of-life impacts on humankind through the restoration of any functionality lost due to illness or injury,\u201d the study group wrote.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\" mco-body-item mco-body-type-text\">\n<p class=\"element element-paragraph\">But as these technologies evolve, \u201cit is vital that the scientific and engineering communities move cautiously to maximize their potential and focus on the safety of our society,&#8221; the study group added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Fuente:<\/strong> <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.armytimes.com\/news\/your-army\/2019\/11\/27\/cyborg-warriors-could-be-here-by-2050-dod-study-group-says\/?utm_source=Sailthru&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=AT%2011-29-19&amp;utm_term=Editorial%20-%20Army%20-%20Daily%20News%20Roundup\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.armytimes.com<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>El grupo de estudio de BHPC&nbsp;&nbsp;del DoD&nbsp;&nbsp;(Biotechnologies for Health and Human Performance Council&nbsp;)&nbsp;&nbsp;realiz\u00f3 una evaluaci\u00f3n de un a\u00f1o titulado &#8220;Soldado Cyborg 2050: que implica la&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4837,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[28],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4789"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4789"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4789\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/4837"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4789"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4789"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4789"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
