The Image of The Beast is not the same as the Beast himself (Antichrist). It is a statue that has "come to life."
In modern terms this would be a life-like robot. We have been accustomed to life-like images since the introduction
of "Great Moments With Mr. Lincoln" at Disneyland in 1965. There has also been a growing interest in "cyborgs," or
bionic men, first popularized by the television series "The Six Million Dollar Man," and a steady development on Star
Trek type programs of the concept of "The Borg" with their collective consciousness.
Dramatic advances in the fields of Computer Science, especially Artificial Intelligence, Computer Animation, Medical Implants and Robotics, have made it possible to picture the fulfillment of this prophecy.

“Over time I think we will probably see a closer merger of biological intelligence and digital intelligence... It's mostly about the bandwidth, the speed of the connection between your brain and the digital version of yourself."
Scientists have grown human cells inside pig embryos, a very early step toward the goal of growing livers and other human organs in animals to transplant into people.
The announcement follows a string of moves ... to make AI technology available on a noncommercial basis. Facebook, Google, and International Business Machines recently donated portions of their formerly proprietary AI software through an open source license.
So when Italian neurosurgeon Sergio Canavero first announced his intention to perform the first ever human “head transplant” by December 2017 – part of his “head anastomosis venture” or HEAVEN project – science fiction seemed to inch a little closer to science fact.
Canavero’s is planning to conduct a 36-hour surgery, removing head of a patient suffering from a debilitating disease, and fusing onto the body an the spinal chord of a dead donor with an otherwise healthy body.
The first commercial version of the new kind of computer chip is scheduled to be released in 2014... It can also sidestep and even tolerate errors, potentially making the term “computer crash” obsolete.
The tiny organoids, as the researchers call them, grow to around 4 millimeters in size. They have many of the same specialized regions that are seen in fetal brains around nine weeks into development.Studying these growths will help them understand brain development and treat genetic problems with the brain..
That raised dystopian visions of battalions of animal soldiers - or even human ones - whose brains are remotely controlled by others. Duke's research had received funding from the Pentagon's Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency or DARPA.
To be transplanted, the head would have to be cooled to between 55 and 59 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, the two heads must be cut at exactly the same time and in the same operating room. Surgeons then have one hour to connect the head.If successful, the living person would be controlled by the head, so in reality, the procedure would be a body transplant.
Wilson says that new solutions may actually leave patients better off than "able-bodied" folks. He claims that the person who has a disability today may have a superability tomorrow. He explains that in his new novel, "Amped," these implants create a class of superabled people, leading to a full-on civil rights movement.
"Annihilation from Within," the new book by Fred C. Ikle, one of America's foremost strategic thinkers, suggests that brain-computer-interface(BCI)projects will one day produce "Homo Connectus," humans with brain-power greater than today's supercomputers.
