Every once in a while, a picture of something will appear on the internet with a recognizable brand name, and sends the wrong message.  Take this picture I found today.  Just to let you know, I’m pretty certain that Steve Jobs is not working on any project called the iThink.  I think. 

As you can see from this picture, the iThink is a Symbiosis Neural Interface that is designed to (but hopefully never will) link your mind to a computer.  How is this possible?  With an Intel Fusion Quantum processor, of course!  It’s a new chip that can process at the speed of thought, and uses holographic storage options. 

There is a lesson to be learned here about placing pictures on the web with corporate logos on them.  By the way, I believe this iThink comes not from Mac, but a blog known as Monkey Buddha. 

There is another lesson here about letting technology go out of control and wiring a computer to your brain.  As soon as I saw this picture, I couldn’t help but think of that classic George Lucas work, THX-1138.  Maybe it was the plain grey outfit, or the shaved head, or the potential that a computer could be used in your brain.  Either way, it’s pretty creepy.
