Amazing post!
I think it's such unfamiliar territory we step into and we don't know how much time it would take for people to accept something like a chip in their brain.
If we take one neuron and replace it with synthetic neuron, will we still be humans? What about thousand of neurons? all of them? would we still be humans? our brain will still do the same thing!
That's just philosophical but it could also be the next step in evolution :)
Once it will be acceptable to have a chip in our brain, it becomes a race of becoming the most efficient humans.
Thank you for a great post @philosimator
Thank you for reading!
We are moving faster than many people realise, its hard to keep up but philosophical questions like that need to be asked. It is worrying that we are messing with our minds and AI when we don't really understand consciousness D:
I think it will be an inevitability that some of us will choose to merge with AI in the future, and once some of us have, like you say it becomes a race. Not everyone will want chips as well, which would create a separation and perhaps a branch in our evolutionary path.
Thanks again for the great comment! :)
