Humanity has not yet developed moral and ethical principles and does not understand how to treat the Internet of bodies, noted the founder and managing partner of MINDSMITH, Ruslan Yusufov, at the IV Youth Digital Forum Youth RIGF 2024 held on April 5. He recalled that Elon Musk's company Neuralink has already implemented content writing service the first neuroimplant for a person with disabilities, and by 2030 Neuralink plans to increase the number of such operations to 22 thousand.

Ruslan Yusufov, MINDSMITH :

– This means that in 5-10 years the first cyborgs will coexist with us. How we will interact, whether we will have a civilizational split – there are more questions than answers.



as well as regulation of incidents that may occur with them, noted lawyer, deputy head of the department of special projects and academic programs of the Scientific and Technical Center of the Federal State Unitary Enterprise "GRChTs" Stanislav Makhortov. According to him, data from such devices is subject to processing and is classified as "personal".

In turn, their processing carries risks in the form of potential leaks of sensitive data, which is regulated by the current legislation on administrative offenses or the Criminal Code.

Stanislav Makhortov, FSUE "GRChTs":

– A bill to toughen penalties for data leaks is currently under consideration in parliament, and data leaks from smart devices will also fall under its provisions.

An important aspect in regulating personal data in the context of the spread of IoB is the implementation of the right to be forgotten, the expert believes.

CYBORGS AMONG US

In connection with the rapid development of IoB in the next decade, it is interesting to see how the digital environment will transform, noted Andrey Golubinsky, Acting Deputy Director for Science at the Institute for Information Transmission Problems (IITP) of the Russian Academy of Sciences named after A.A. Kharkevich.

In his opinion, these are currently mobile phones, laptops and other user devices, as well as badges where screens are projected, etc. Until this technology comes to the masses, it will remain a toy for several companies to solve a very narrow problem for people with disabilities.

Andrey Golubinsky, A. A. Kharkevich Institute of Information Transmission Problems of the Russian Academy of Sciences:

– Doctors are seriously considering what data about a person’s body, for example, about their lifestyle, seriously influences the course of the disease. We need to establish a correlation between them.

The medical resource is very expensive for the state, since it takes about 10 years to train a specialist, said Yuri Vasiliev, director of the state budgetary institution of health care of the city of Moscow, the Scientific and Practical Clinical Center for Diagnostics and Telemedicine Technologies of the Department of Health of the City of Moscow. And this, in his opinion, is a kind of "bottleneck".
