    well yeah, it absolutely will be disastrous, but now the cat is not going back in the bag regardless of how many fags complain about it

    Is AI summer taking over from Hot girl summer?

    All you'd need is a molecular transporter and a powerful computer. The atoms become the pixels, and the computer arranges them.

    Neural interfaces are a dead end IMO. Stupid idea tbh. At least when we are talking outside of a medical context. I will call it now, there is literally zero chance of any neural interface related technology gaining any long term traction amongst any consumer tech within our lifetimes.

    I've thought about this for a while too, while following both technologies like neuralink as well as consumer end wearable computing.

    Google Glass was the big "lightbulb moment" for me that this AR, VR shit, any sort of neural bullshit, will never gain any adoption. The reason is because Android Wear (now WearOS) exists as well as Apple's WatchOS. And already smart watches are really stretching the limits of justifying their own price tags as companion devices. Their hardware aspect is the exact same as a smaller, cheaper phone than your main phone. They will become almost like earbuds, a common accessory item to phones, because they only have a limited performance threshold they need to perform their basic function as a companion device, convenient micro-interactions with your phone. But they'll advance faster and be more exciting, with as broad a range of products available as earbuds.

    The future will basically just be your phone being your main computational "hub" and then you will have a companion device that can communicate with it more conveniently for micro interactions.

    We are already on that track but wearable software is just still too immature.

    With this arrangement, you will have a huge high resolution screen and beefy processor and radios, cameras etc available in your pocket when you want to do any actual media consumption or work or whatever. And a companion device for basic notification based interactions with it that will cover like 99% of your "walking around" use cases.

    And if you want VR, all the tech will just be loaded into one of these formats that can be easily sold and gotten rid of if you want.

    Technology moves too fast and the security risks are too high for anyone to insert wires into their brain to do basic shit with.

    Even now with Neuralink many employees and former employees have complained it is being run like a fast paced tech startup rather than what it is, an emerging medical technology that requires a shitload of careful, gradual, thorough development.

    Neural interfaces will probably be super valuable for helping handicapped people restore function etc but it will never be successful for just shitting around in VR or whatever, or other general consumer stuff.

    I think the phones will get more awareness via integrations with public facing systems and "prod" you more automatically and more frequently into doing stuff.

    But people like verifying an input. They LIKE the separation of putting a bunch of text into a box and hitting send BEFORE it gets posted. You will get more and more advanced models of stuff being presented for "human approval" in different ways and with different frequencies. So all you have to do for the most part is will "yes or no"

    But it will always be through the separation layer of "first I actuate my fingers to do an intentional action, which in turn actuates this mechanisms that subsequently causes this effect reliably that I believed it would."

    I don't know why removing those 2 intermediate layers is the holy grail.

    I like those layers. Everyone likes those layers. Those layers are useful for a bunch of other stuff too. I don't even think fast enough to where I'm just typing too slow to even contain all the information and it's limited by the speed of my fingers... It's more limited by the speed of thought and that itself is kind of the "speed limit" of human experience. Perhaps the idea would be to speed up the brain's function to extend what that limitations actually means... But in practice that will probably just be like being an ultra neurotic and high strung guy who can still lbe functional, because your psychological competence isn't measured by "pace of thought", rather than living in Bullet Time. An overwhelming of life's basic challenges have nothing to do with being able to think fast. Intelligent people already go into depression from understimulation cuz they're already thinking too much. Instead most of the "challenges" humans face on a daily basis are basically information parsing and delivery based.

    AI also doesn't NEED neural interfaces to grow extremely powerful at predicting exactly what you need and want, and when you need and want it.

    AI predictive models are already great at inferring human desires based on your outward behaviours. I don't see what giving them access to the "pre approval" layers would really even do to benefit their effectiveness, rather than just convoluting the very intentional information you provide by actually clicking on and engaging with a YouTube video for example.

    In quantum physics, there is a dual (ghost/clone) particle for every particle. So you really have two particles for every particle. Which means if you can control the first particle, you can control the second particle. But it's in reverse. If you spin the first particle clockwise, the phantom particle spins anti-clockwise. Now, if you were to apply a molecular projector running off an immensely powerful computer, you would be able to create and physically manipulate an entire organized world in real time.

    Isn't that entanglement theory?

    yes, but with a healthy dose of imagination

    Entanglement theory is a concept in quantum physics that describes the correlation between particles, even when they are separated by vast distances. In entanglement, the properties of two or more particles become linked, so that the state of one particle can be instantly affected by measuring the state of the other particle, no matter how far apart they are.
