When I started reading, my first question was "so that what"? Outside of a medical need, why do we want an implant for superhuman intelligence?
Too many high IQ humans without a balance of the more than 27 (and counting) lines of intelligences will get us what? Further destroying the planet for more money to buy more things? At a Dear cost to humanity and the planet.
I don't know of a case of altruistic invention.
If the LLM they are going to tap into is Musk's we are in faster trouble.
Governments are not known to be proactive, ever. When humans run government and lobbyists influence (I experienced this first hand when I was in the biodiesel industry), reaction and money wins the day (even when we don'tsee the truth of the shenanigans behind the scene.
What also comes to mind (not directly related, more to the tendency to intervention) is scheduled c-sections. When they are necessary they save lives. When they are for convenience or astrological reasons they rob the new life of a very human process and health benefit.
We have moved so far away from being humans sharing the planet with all life toward the increased power, destroy and win energy.
1000%. I am so grateful to the researchers doing this work and many of them are altruistic. But odds are very high that people who do not have a medical need will want to take advantage of the benefits of BCI for cognition. Alexandr Wang is a strong indicator of where the Tech Bros think this is heading. And currently AI is completely unregulated.
Congratulation, that would be a good read

Looking guards to your book!
Very disturbing title.
Yes, it’s all quite disturbing.
Congratulations on AI Baby! Can’t wait to read! 🍾🪇👏🏻💗
Blessing for paralyzes and so many families that battle parkinsons , but nightmare for the rest of humanity.
