Superhuman AI will make BCI-enhanced humans irrelevant compared to AI 2 years from today.

Superhuman AI will make BCI-enhanced humans irrelevant compared to AI 2 years from today. | It turns out that's not going to happen. The AI is improving so quickly that it the enhanced human being is completely irrelevant compared to the superhuman AI 2 years from today. The only way is coupling. The only way is coupling with AI.

Watch events: Neuralink human trial enrollment; first commercial BCI

It turns out that's not going to happen. The AI is improving so quickly that it the enhanced human being is completely irrelevant compared to the superhuman AI 2 years from today. The only way is coupling. The only way is coupling with AI.

Dave's 'BCI-irrelevant in 2y' claim (by April 2028). Neuralink currently ~14 human patients, not scaling to enhancement yet. AI superhuman claim may hit earlier. Prediction is directionally plausible but timing aggressive.
