I like that concept.
But this gets into the blurry area of, like, are you human anymore?
Like, if you have a chip in your brain and you're, like, being a cephalopod and then you morph into, like, you know, being, you know, on your own desktop, like, are you still human?
Yeah, I think also intergenerationally we're already doing that.
So like the sort of, you know, people will always talk about how kids are more comfortable with technology than their parents or grandparents were.
And why are they more comfortable?
Because they grew up in a totally different environment.
Like the world has literally changed in the last few decades.
So like the world that kids are growing up today is not the world that it was when kids are growing up like 50 years ago.
And so they are quote unquote alien, not really alien, but like they're really fundamentally different in a lot of ways.
And I think it's okay to recognize that.
Like that's, you know, part of the progression of understanding and the fact that the world is changing.
Those are fun thought experiments.
I mean, I think we're already seeing signs of that, right?
Like people's like fear of leaving their cell phone behind.
