Imagining a World of Total Connectedness, and Its Consequences

By KATHERINE BOUTON

In “World Wide Mind,” Michael Chorost borrows from his own experience with a cochlear implant.

在《世界之心》一書中，麥可‧喬羅斯特借鑒了他自己植入人工耳蝸的經驗。

On a warm morning a few months ago, Lipa, a Ukrainian drone pilot, flew a small gray quadcopter over the ravaged fields near Borysivka, a tiny occupied village abutting the Russian border. 
幾個月前一個溫暖的早晨，烏克蘭無人機飛行員利帕駕駛著一架灰色的小型四軸飛行器，飛越博里西夫卡附近滿目瘡痍的田野。博里西夫卡是一個被佔領的小村莊，毗鄰俄羅斯邊境。
