Look, I get that this is impressive and all, but as a developer, keep that shit out of my brain.

And this is not a "hurr durr China dictatorship hurr durr SeeSeePee thought control" thing, it's an "I have no reason to think they don't have good intentions but software, no matter how genuinely well intentioned, will NEVER be trustworthy enough for me to connect my brain to" thing. We DO NOT understand the brain nearly enough to even begin to theorise what could go wrong or what kinds of exploits could be done on it. Maybe it's because it's a paradigm shift that I'm not prepared for, but this sounds like absolute security hell and can only go disastrously wrong. And you can't wipe and reinstall your brain when it does, nor does evolution tend to patch CVEs in a timely manner.

Remember that there are ingestible chemicals, a comparatively extremely crude and imprecise way of controlling the brain, that can completely destroy your mental defenses and make you do whatever the attacker wants. Imagine a direct neuron level interface with a computer that can scale infinitely beyond the processing power of the brain. Fuck that shit.

How does the “non-invasive track” turn out sounding the most dystopian haha

God damnit. Already?

i'll never implant phones in my brain, for all the obvious reasons.
