Naturally, @Neuralink is of interest & I’ve tweeted about it a lot
I agree. And I think we would agree that it raised even more questions than we were expecting😅
The thing that I actually lose sleep over, the thing that gives me a stomachache:
Inequality
What happens, when the only ones able to afford such an extreme, life-enhancing technology are the wealthy elite?
If you’re reading this tweet, you are already augmented in a way by means of internet access.
Imagine: only the 1% are able to access the web, and you are being kept from ~all this~
Imagine a BMI that also functions as a master controller, optimizing all of the body’s sub-systems & processes by means of signaling.
What then?
Elon often calls for the regulation of #AI.
I wonder when we should call for the regulation of #Neuralink (or the like) 🤔
