I bet Nano Surgery is going to need some good coders to design the little molecular submarines ! :-) Regardz Colin J Davies

Then there is the recognising which cells to work on and which to leave alone. That has got to be dificult if we can only just now get computers to recognise faces and objects in macro-life. Even if all that is solved how is the logic needed fitted into the nano-machine? Will it just be broadcast to the machine and it will follow orders? But what about the feedback then to the external controller? An amazing field to think about Colin, I only wish I had the mental requirements to really get involved.

I wonder if the programs will have to be written in 0.000001pt font? :)

I built a working prototype, but I droped it onto the carpet and have been unable to find it since. :laugh: Roger Allen Sonork 100.10016

Having had some experience coding some AI stuff, I have to agree - how do you target your nanodevice? Do you make it general purpose, scanning for anomolies and fixing deviations from the norm (and who defines the norm?), or do you custom design machines to attack specific abnormalities? This is a field in it's infancy, full of promise, yet unclear about its mission. Perhaps we can help to define it more specifically... I'm trying to imagine a rule-set, Prolog style, that could begin to describe the question-space, but I'm failing miserably. I suspect that an expert system approach would be inadequate. But a neural net, given sufficient input for training, could provide answers to, at least, a few of my questions. I think, therefore I am, confused...

I've never tried that - does it work?

I've never tried. Do you think I should? :)
