Tryenjer@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Brain-computer interfaces: Brain implants are letting people move, speak, and interact with machines using only their thoughts. The first FDA approvals may arrive within five years.English1·15 days agoI don’t think it necessarily has to be that way. That’s what I’m trying to say.
Now if you ask me what I think would be most likely to happen I tend to agree with you. This technology is already beginning to develop in the wrong hands.
One thing is certain, it would be a huge transformation.

In an ideal world this technology could give you access to my memories and give me access to yours, I would know everything about you and you would know everything about me (no privacy, yes, but no power imbalance either), lying would be pointless and we would be able to feel what each other feels in the way we feel.
A good part of Humanity’s problems are problems with language, communication, understanding others or rather the lack thereof. A technology like this could literally put us in other people’s heads and thus perhaps help us develop greater understanding and empathy, at least I have hope for this.
That said, I don’t trust the people running these companies to develop this with the benign long-term goal I’ve described. 🤣

Tryenjer@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•With a Trump-driven reduction of nearly 2,000 employees, F.D.A. will Use A.I. in Drug Approvals to ‘Radically Increase Efficiency’English6·17 days agoFurthermore, something can be efficient in different ways depending on the criteria. Something can even be efficient in one context and inefficient in a different one. Efficiency as they use it is too vague.
To be honest, that’s exactly what many “conservatives” today want. They would be better described as reactionaries than conservatives.
I’m not superstitious, but I’m starting to think that the 30s are cursed, the closer we get to them the worse Europe gets.
Tryenjer@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•A 'US-Made iPhone' Is Pure FantasyEnglish272·3 months agoDon’t talk nonsense. Trump will destroy America and take Europe down the same path if he gets the chance.
The breakdown of trust in the Atlantic alliance alone is one of the worst things that could have happened to both sides and this is just the beginning. They’re going to fuck themselves and they’re going to fuck us in the process.
Tryenjer@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•A 'US-Made iPhone' Is Pure FantasyEnglish421·3 months agoBold of you to assume that Trump and Company won’t put the average American to work for almost nothing. The planned economic recession is to convince the people to do so.
The new generation of American children will not spend most of their time studying in school, but rather working in factories for a handful of peanuts. That’s Trump’s America.

Diego (Diogo in Portuguese) is a modification of the name Tiago which in turn is the diminutive of Santiago which is the name of the apostle James in Spanish and Portuguese.
Maybe Saint Jim would convey the idea better?
If Trump continues like this, California may try to gain independence and become the successor of the USA’s constitutional democracy. LoL
Btw, San Diego would be Saint James.

The Dunning-Kruger effect can affect anyone, including experts.
In short, we will need an open-source alternative to these implants, of course.
