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.

Neurotypical people. Please listen to me. I promise you, with all the ADHD in my body-

You really do not want 1,000 more thoughts.

You may think you do, but you extremely do not.

Your physical body would probably burn out at that speed. Perhaps some substantial speed increases would be in order? 1.5x? 2x? Imagine the friction of going 1000x; in your joints, in your organs; the blood flow, the stress on your heart.

We tried this shit in the 80s with cocaine. Tech bros all just want virtual cocaine.

Obviously I don't mean physically moving 1000x faster. Probably just the shockwave would destroy your apartment and kill everyone around you.

But if you could access and send information 1000x faster... you could code custom OS in couple hours (days?), you could research anything in microseconds, you could shitpost at incredible frequency...

Banks describes something like that in... Matter I believe. A character uses her brain-computer interface to check the route to another solar system, weeks away, with all the ships she will have take and were she will have to rendezvous with them and she does it in a blink of an eye, without losing track of the conversation she's having.
