Nanomotors - Medical Nanotechnology On Its Way?

Researchers controlled nanomotors inside living cells for the first time using tiny synthetic motors and ultrasonic waves. Penn State scientists have a brand new way to study cell biology, but may be on the way to medical nanotechnology- they could treat diseases like cancer by manipulating cells, delivering drugs, and maybe much more. Kim Horcher, Tim Frisch, and Dave Rubin (Host, The Rubin Report) discuss.

Still think it's going to be big, self conscious robots.

[DelightfullyE]

No mature how it happens, at this point we will always be the cause of our end.

The new version of "The day the earth stood still" didnt suck!
Maybe for surface level thinkers who thought the Matrix  2 and 3 sucked.

It's possible that grey goo could conglomerate and evolve into larger, macroscopic robots. Like how unicellular organisms evolved into complex multicellular ones. Or like the human-form replicators from Stargate.

Our nanotech will be significantly less sophisticated than nature for a long time to come. Natural systems will literally eat our nanotech for breakfast - so we have less to fear frpm grey goo than we do from fungal, bacterial or algal blooms getting out of hand because we provide an overabundance of exotic nutrition for some critter we find toxic / disruptive.

Does this remind anyone else of the beginning of i am legend?

So can they harden your body in response to trauma?

[Neuromancerism]

I dont care if nanobots kill humans. I hope to end my fleshly existance soon anyways and live in a server or multiple ones actualy.

[MarUlberg]

I liked The Day The Earth Stood Still : /

[jesusoriginal]

do you guys know about braincells being grown and interphased  with computers minimul stuff so far i think it been a while since i seen  the story featuring  this story

[Torchim]

Oh hell no, not this metal gear shit.

I love the idea of nanotechnology but I'm worried it will be another addition to the stuff we thought we'd have in 20 years but never did. I should have been having virtual sex in my flying car by now.
