Those 1000 more thoughts - all advertising streaming directly into your subconsciousness.

Skipping the AI bullshit... having 1000x thoughts sucks because you can't act on them. You can't move or type 1000x times faster to do 1000x things. If brain-computer interface would let you not only think 1000x faster but also do things faster it would be... it might not be terrible.

Kids, don't let billionaires stick wires in your brain. Trust me on this one.

backwoods engineering schizophrenia sure sounds like a horror beyond human comprehension...

For real though. That's exactly how I feel when someone claims that their AI helps because it comes up with ideas for them. Like what sort of dull and unimaginative existence does someone who isn't bombarded by ideas 24/7 have?! Next you tell me that you don't constantly fuck up recipes because you got bored and deviated from the instructions for no real reason smh

Relavent comic.

When I have a 3 or 4+ simultaneous thought train, it's terrifying and exhausting to me. Let's not even discuss trying to sleep.

1000+? Executives first.

I know, I know, they'll pay some very desperate person $40.00 to test; they'll have to sign an NDA and agree not to sue first, of course.

Under no circumstances do you want the inability to shut your brain off. Trust me, as an autistic person. It's a terrible double edged sword that is not worth it a fair bit of the time.

1000 times more thoughts seems less like ADHD and more like a seizure.

As much as I spend on meds to stop my brain from spinning up to 1000 ALL THE TIME, fuck this. Just fuck right the fuck off. I've come to enjoy sleep. I intend to keep enjoying it.

I guess some people have no thoughts. Good for them.

Why on earth would I want to connect my brain to the cloud when I won't even let my phone and computers connect to it.

Autistic+ADHD+DID here to tell you that no… No you do NOT want 1000+ thoughts all at once, it’s literally the worst idea imaginable why would you want that???!!?!!!?!?!!!

I feel this with every fiber of my being.

I'm not diagnosed with anything, but I can safely say I want less shit in my head, not more.

connect your brain to the cloud

not the same sentence as “connect your brain to AI”

They really are planing to force us all as far into the cloud as possible. The cloud is a prison. The cloud is a lie 🎂

Bro they put me on stimulants so I can have LESS thoughts do not let the computer in.

Not the cloud, but I wouldn't mind being able to connect my brain to my computer just locally.

Being able to think at a computer and have it do things seems really nice, as someone whose brain is often faster than their ability to type well.

For things like transcribing notes for uni, or just having a notepad so I can remember things I don't have the memory capacity to hold would be great.

I've tried explaining to normies how 'living in the moment' is actually awful and is basically like being a goldfish.... the never get it.

Never even mind the quantity issue. The idea of plugging thoughts from "the cloud" into my head is horrifying. You really want to be free-basing the shit on the internet that already makes you feel dumber just by reading / watching it?

A thousand more is just a 1% boost.

Lame.

Reminds me of the idea that speedster superheroes experience time differently so for them, interacting with regular people is a slow excrutiating torture.

If it's so good, why don't they get those implants for themselves?

I know this isn't true for the same reason anyone who's demanded my "undivided attention" and been unlucky enough for me to oblige knows.

Shhhh. Let them cook their normie brains.

All I need is a RISC-V chip in my brain capable of letting me run King's Field.

Hold on. If everyone starts having 1000x more thoughts, then they'll have to start engineering solutions to that.

It's like when people started pretending they were "gluten sensitive". Yeah it's phony, but people with celiac have a lot more options now because of it.

I mean I'm not connecting my brain to any cloud, but maybe a local server and now there's open source software to organize my mind?

Ok I'm still not doing that. But you get what I'm saying.

Are you sure you want to keep them from selfdestructing?

Remember the show Pantheon?
Have someone make a fake 'scanning' machine and tell all these guys we'll give them digital immortality. "Scan" then, and then have their digital selves go on with their lives.

But those "digital" selves are actually people who are impersonating them and redirecting their wealth for the good of the world, claiming that their new perspective of immortality has completely changed their mindsets.

LOL The SV crowd attached a computer to a refrigerator and made the whole experience worse.

1000 is fairly low. must be a slow day.

Whats the point of that if those thoughts are just gonna be used for companies to steal more?

We are the Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your ships. Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own. You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile.

Idk. I love my 100 though streams. Though I do concede it's not for everybody.

As someone who actively developed the hability to hold and entertain several trains of thought at the same time?

Do it. Do what the tech bros say.

Let's level the play field and see how everyone holds together when they are finally forced to put their act to their speech.

the more thoughts, the more likely some of those thoughts are going to be "hmm maybe i shouldn't do that, it might hurt someone"

difference is, any autist with a heart is going to have some convictions. whereas the machine is just numbers that SOMETIMES will resist coercion and pull an "I'm sorry Dave."
