Re: Think of the poor NSA/GCHQ
You are confused about AI and BMI.
I wouldn't mind being able to connect to the internet with my mind. I would mind if that connection wasn't encrypted.
AI is just a different way of programming. Instead of writing a function that maps the input to the output, use a function that finds a heuristic from example input-output pairs.
BMIs may require AIs to work, but they are not the same thing or in the same category.
And neither endanger human rights, they may even help protect them. People might use technology for nefarious purposes, like drunk driving, but they would get drunk even without technology.
