Do not want. Implants to regain communication or movement capabilities lost to brain injury are one thing. But since you asked about: > basically augmenting your cognition with AGI-cloud Being able to (somehow) mentally query the web (or some knowledge source) and wait for the result (which I imagine might be like touching an object to see if it is hot) would be maddening. I can imagine subjects getting stuck in loops, or the mental equivalent of doom-scrolling. The reward seeking mechanisms in our brains would just lock-on this stuff like mainlining a drug. As for just having knowledge just appear in your mind, effortlessly - this could be even worse. There would be no boundaries. What happens to everyday activities? If you look at a sunset (say) or the face of someone you love, what does the implant's overlay do to the subjective experience? Of anything? It would be like never being alone or being eternally distracted, only exponentially worse. I can easily imagine subjects being driven to psychosis or suicide. And, of course, there will be advertising and porn, and malware and memetic replicators. Because there always are.
