The Chamber of Deputies of Chile approved this Wednesday a project for the protection of “ neuro-rights “or rights of the brain and mind, thus giving the complete sanction to be promulgated as law.
With 121 votes in favor and 5 abstentions the Chamber Baja ratified the prior approval that the Senate had given to the project, making Chile the first country in the world to regulate this right with an eye put in the future before the advancement of the technologies applied to the mind and the brain.
“Unprecedented in the world: Approved and ready to be law our constitutional reform that protects the neuro-rights . We are happy that this is the beginning of a planetary-level evaluation of how technologies should be used for the good of humanity “, stated on Twitter the opposition senator Guido Girardi, one of the promoters of the reform.
Chile seeks to anticipate realities that until now have hardly been thought of in the world of science fiction films, where neurotechnology and human beings intersect their ways .
It’s a visionary move for when they come true the futuristic and dystopian stories of films such as “The Origin” (2010), where human behavior is changed through the implantation of ideas in the brain, or “The Matrix” (1999), in which the protagonist learns immediate knowledge with the installation of a program in their brain.
The law “establishes that scientific and technological development will be at the service of people and that it will be carried out with respect to life and to physical and mental integrity, “the Lower House reported in a statement.
” It will regulate the requirements, conditions and restrictions for its use by people. The rule should protect, especially, brain activity, as well as the information from it, “he added.
