"The Ethics of Handing Over Human Consciousness to AI in a World Where Brain-Computer Interfaces Have Become Indistinguishable from Reality"
Script
As we stand at the precipice of brain-computer interfaces becoming indistinguishable from reality, we're forced to confront the ethics of handing over human consciousness to AI. This notion reverberates through the existential queries posed by Alan Turing, "Can machines think?" and "Can we think without a body?" Philosopher Nick Bostrom's "Simulation Hypothesis" suggests we may already be living in a simulated reality, where our minds are just software running on a cosmic computer. But what does this imply for our sense of self and autonomy? Is assimilation into a collective AI a form of transcendence or a surrender of human essence?
