Read the passage from you in the 21st Century, by Joe Arthur. *
It's 6:30 in the morning and you have just been awakened by the alarm clock in your brain. Your new AlphaClock works really well, and it
does the job without all that irritating beeping your old-fashioned alarm clock made. And the AlphaClock is so easy to set. Last night, in a normal
conversational voice, you simply told it what time you wanted to get up.
"As you wish," the AlphaClock replied, "and have a good night."
At precisely 6:29:45 a. m., a miniature generator/transmitter inside the compact, bedside console silently came to life. It was programmed
the electronics store with a sample of your brain's alpha waves, so it immediately began pulsing a gentle signal that can be "read" by your brain
only. Before another fifteen-hundredths of a second has elapsed, you are sliding your feet into your slippers.
"Orange juice. Two eggs over easy, whole wheat toast, strawberry jelly," you say as you enter your small empty kitchen. The walls may not
have ears, but the automatic food prep system does, and in less than a minute a gentle "ding" indicates that breakfast has been cooked. Metal
Mouth, your tireless household robot with a heart of silicon, brings the steaming tray of food to your small kitchen table.
You turn on the telescreen and start eating.
