We do use 100% of our brains, no part of our brain is "redundant". That particular myth springs from the fact we use only a portion of our brains at any one time. I cannot think and talk 2 different things properly, nor can I write a paragraph while singing while watching TV properly. Seperately I can do those things (though I can't sing very well ), but together I (and I'd wager you) cannot do them all. Our brains do not need to do those 3 things at once, and hence different areas of our brains turn on and off (though never truely off) as the different abilities are required.ihateecstacy said:This technology could enable us to us %100 of our brain. Think about it. It seems logical. The human race would be a sort of living, breating, super computer.
I suppose technology could have us being able to use all our brain's different functions at once, but I doubt it would be of much use, and would be terribly energy consuming (our brains use 25% of our energy intake!).
