We are not going to be able to put a chip in the brain to detect your mood for decades, and even then will it be worth doing?
Surgery is invasive, dangerous, your body is corrosive, putting stuff in your brain will have side-effects and what are you going to get out of it? Music to suit your mood?
I totally agree with Nick Bostrom[1] on this one, it's not happening any time soon.

- desireco42 11y agoYou don't need to put a chip in my brain to detect my mood, simple skin detector, like your watch should be able to do that. Also, brainwaves can be detected with the headband, these are general rhythms, so you can't get specific centers, but it is getting more useful every day. Anyhow, I think I understand where your skepticism originates, it make sense, I think a lot of smaller advancements would allow us to come closer to this.
