Here you go kids, read away

So, first of all do you think this is a fake article (I mean, a reliable source?)

And, if so, do you think they can make a chip powerful enough for humans?

Ohhh, future. You terrify me sometimes.

Yay, this could end the need for 15+ years of school

I don't like that. Who knows what people could do with this? Imagine if somebody could control your chip. It's a good concept, but I don't think it would work well. :/

Brainwashing is already possible (to an extent) so this is nothing new.

I could be wrong, but it sounds like the device can only "record" and "play back" memories, not create new ones.  That makes it sound like mind control is still out of the question.  The ability to recover lost memories sounds revolutionary, though.  I know there's a lot of stuff I've forgotten; at least, I think there is.

More of a legitimate resource

Seems it can only make people remember, not forget like the other source says.

Probably fake.

I'm not sure if I want a chip put in my brain just to remember where I put my keys.
