Elon Musk’s Neuralink wants to boost the brain to keep up with AI
Everyone is so scared of all of this, but where do you all realistically see humanity in 200 years? Living like we do now? I mean do you realize how different things were in 1817 compared to now? Unfathomable to them [1].I know HN hates techno groups, but this kind of thing is not new at all to folks who consider themselves "Transhumanists."How is this not an obvious eventuality for everyone here? It seems pretty clear that the whole vector of humanity is to functionally merge with our engineered system in a symbiotic way and then probably see the extinction of the human species in (relatively) short order.We're gonna go extinct anyway, so what's the alternative?edit: Used a slightly different time horizon on suggestion.[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1817
