I’ve yet to hear a good argument for free will. Would love to be convinced

Check out @MarkHamalainen and @LBF_org @ Foresight Vision Weekend to learn about solving aging
Foresight's 40th anniversary coming up! I'll be there promoting life extension ideas of course :)

I call myself a cyborg. The truth is simpler: I’m a husband, a patient, and someone who got another chance to be heard. Thanks @Neuralink.

i think we're going to find that humanity is probably much closer to "minimum increment past the bar of general intelligence" than even being "strong" relative to what is possible

A new term I just collected - "Cognitive Horsepower" == the rate you can turn inputs into useful insights.

Neuralink is needed to solve the super low & lossy output bandwidth of humans. Our input bandwidth, thanks to vision, is many orders of magnitude higher than our output bandwidth, but could also be greatly improved. By addressing these bandwidth limitations and greatly increasing our effective cognitive capacity, human-AI symbiosis will be far better, improving the probability of a great outcome for humanity in the future.
