What would you do with a neural implant?

Me? I'd like a implant would alleviate my & , without the risk of hackers changing the files in my brain. Is that too much to ask?

On a less serious note, I'd use it to write faster, and edit flawlessly. Think of all the books I'd finish!

@virati the aspect of seems paramount prior to any adoption. Still, technological exploits are ever present and I’d be worried that with commercialization comes targeted efforts to disrupt the .

I'm not necessarily saying I don't think they are, but most of presupposes that the technology should be commercialized *right now*.
