Yeah the last part is an unncessary joke. I wanted to refer to his company neural link. I am absolutely no expert on this topic. But the things I have read were not that optimistic. They say Elon Musk's company just wants to generate an hype but they don't make substantial progress. I think this is likely the truth. I sometimes watch or read some sci-fi stuff. Most of them thought we would be way more advanced in linking our brain to computers to this date. It is seems to be fucking difficult. I think Musk wants to use AI to make progress. Maybe should shut the fuck up about topics I don't know much about. But if I did that I could barely post any threads aynmore. Lol.
I think there are also different stages of linking your brain to the internet. I think uploading your consciousness into a cloud is far far away from happening. I doubt that I will ever experience something like that. Even if I don't die young. Some people in this forum are afraid of becoming immortal. I doubt that technology will be forced on us. I rather think the superrich would be the first one to get this therapy. In case this really becomes true I think they will regret it a lot. I had this talk with my best friend. He does not want to die, he likes his life. He says he could imagine to live forever if there was a possibility. Of course also avoiding all the unpleasant illnesses that you get when you are very old.
Personally I am pretty convinced most people would regret having made this choice (to become immortal). I think humans and their brains are not programmed to live forever. I think after you lived your first one million years you might get a little bit bored. Or you will get this melancholia and the wish for an end. Of course if we assume that becoming immortal would be irreversible.
Then there are also other technologies. Like driving a car by linking it to your brain. Surfing through the internet with your brain. I assume the former one is easier to make it work than the latter one. By the way the metaverse resembles kind of this dream to be inside the internet.
I rather think before this becomes true there are a lot of other problems solved. If they know the human brain enough to link it fully to a computer there will be a lot of progress how to deal with mental illnesses7 better treatment for it.
I doubt that we will be able to upload our conscioussness at the end of this century. But what do I know? Please lecture me you anonymous crowd of this forum. Here are so many people there is probably always one who knows more than you on a certain topic.
