> I dunno, I think I quite liked the world how it was before that!

I agree. I don't know why but when I read this article and the responses here stating how things can be related and can be measured, I suddenly felt this sigh? disappointment? for 'demystifying the mind'.



You just know some arsehole is going to make a read interface, then that'll get used for measuring, then people will optimize processes around it.

Nightmare fuel.


Yes exactly. It won't take long till someone exploits it which would be more robust than the prediction models we have right now and that's what I don't want a single dime of.

I know we're not there yet, and perhaps we won't ever be, or we'll be there in 10 years, but we don't have to map every single thing in the brain in order to exploit the foundational behavior.
