Background to this slightly weird question: I found one of my old an English exams on science fiction and dystopian literature from the 11th grade in North-Rhine Westphalia, Germany (ca. 2004) and found a similar question. The idea back then was to discuss the pro- and cons of a BCI (and I objectively did not do to well back then) . I am interested about people’s opinions.
I’m pretty sure the ability to integrate computer processing with human thought is what will actually signal the point of singularity in “AI” development, an entity capable of both the mass data tabulation of binaric computing and the incredible abilities of pattern recognition only found in the brain.
If it was safe and secure I’d absolutely be interested in seeing how that fusion of ways to process the world around us would change how we understand it.
