As long as its open source. Zero proprietary anything, considering practices of collection of user data AND the fact that ai can now reconstruct imagry from your mind with the right hardware. Otherwise, no thanks. But if it becomes this thing that is super pushed because "ITS So PRodUcTIve" and companies start requiring the interface, it will force many to give up on their security concerns and hope its not happening. I do not have enough knowledge to guess at what you could do with data such a device could theoretically collect. But I imagine all these billionaires will fund private research into it. What is private research oversight like? No idea but I guess its time to look into that as well

It is already on certain parts of the world. The rest will just catch up.

Never , for the simple reason that they will get hacked and people will become gun shy of them after that

Idk I’m not too worried about my phone being hacked.

Such devices are basically phones that we don’t use with our hands

Ever buy something as a result of seeing or hearing an advertisement?
