Improvements in Prosthetic Arms

It seems that war often drives medical innovation.
Amazing to see the interface between technology and the human body improving. The Singularity is near! Related to this post about a prosthetic arm.

Cool. It should also have an "auto pilot" or autonomous function. "Masturbate sequence beta, go".

It also needs to be programmable, so that you can assign different reactions to neural activity and mount different tools on the top.

If you want different tools I think you'd just need to train your brain, not reprogram the machine. It's your brain that needs to know what signals to send.
