I just saw a video of an AI executive saying that people will connect their brains to the cloud so they can have 1,000 times more thoughts.

@Artists_Ali@sunny.garden I saw "connect their brains to the cloud" and thought of Microsoft introducing opt-out OneDrive sync for your brain

[piglet@mastodon.scot]

@Artists_Ali AI execs want everyone to connect the brain to the cloud so they can future monetize the 4 low level thoughts neurotypicals like me actually have in a day. The "we own everything and you only rent it" agenda for the human mind.

They think it’ll turn them into “Lucy”, but it’ll be more like “The Terminal Man”.

@itsmaya @Artists_Ali
Are you sure? They have money. Lots.

[crystal_fish_caves@mstdn.party]

@Artists_Ali not only do I NOT want 1,000 more thoughts, they can have the ones I have now. Take my thoughts.
Please.

@Artists_Ali @JoscelynTransient
Weed seems to increase my thoughts, but they tend to be funny ones, so that’s OK.

@mysturji @Artists_Ali I think you might have missed the implication that plugging your brain into experimental brain altering equipment is very likely to be somewhere between debilitaing and fatal.
That's what I call a win.

@Artists_Ali i have plenty of spare thoughts lying around to donate to the neurotypical folks if they want to try the ADHD Experience

@Artists_Ali what 1000 multiplied by zero, someone should have asked that CEO...

@Artists_Ali it's like the whole "we only use 10% of our brain, we should unlock using 100% of it" crap that used to circulate. using 100% of your brain is called a seizure.

[spiegelmama@infosec.exchange]

@Shdwdrgn I'm jealous. I'd have saved so much money on booze if I'd had this detente.
@Artists_Ali

[spiegelmama@infosec.exchange]

@JoscelynTransient Big same, Joscelyn. And yet it never worked, not really. For some reason, LSD often did.

@Artists_Ali quality > quantity

[itsmaya@social.treehouse.systems]

@Artists_Ali yea sounds good. If you have a point you're going to need to spell it out because to me that sounds like a big net win.

[artists_ali@sunny.garden]

@Shdwdrgn Good for you babe! Teach us your magic!

[unworthybeatrix@girlcock.club]

@Artists_Ali Oh no I 100% want neurotypical people to experience that.

And whatever a power flicker might do to that.
