As I understand it, you need training and quite a bit of concentration to make the arm move. That may be old tech, though, that's how the brain-controlled mouse cursor worked. Maybe it's easier with the arm, since it's plugged in nerves that are supposed to move the arm in the first place.

But, anyway, you can think of hitting someone without actually punching him in the face. I'm pretty sure it's the same with the bionic arm, and you have to explicitly want to make your arm move to have it do so, just like a real arm - the motor brain and the thinking brain are two different bunches of neurons.

Now, what if I had a laser fitted into it?
