Gamer Movie Review: Beyond The Trailer + Comment

Comment on gamer movie:

In this movie advanced neural interfaces are explored, but the seeming necessity that such would quickly after likely be followed by radical ai advances seem to be ignored within it, as far as I can remember.

Within the movie humans can be controlled by other humans, but their performance is limited by the performance of those humans remotely controlling them.    But one of the things that could happen in the real world is that as neural interfaces lead to the creation of agi, if it isn't created prior to their development through ai research, not only can intelligence be augmented by these neural interfaces but direct control of the body given to software or ai.

What would this mean?  Well the human reaction time, even if augmented is limited, and the sluggishness of their thought speed rate(due to slow action potential speed, neuron refractory periods, etc) means they can never reach the best possible behavior.   But a superintelligence can attain perfect behavior, score 3 point throws practically nonstop from any distance the individual is physically capable of.    A superintelligence can dance perfectly.  It can understand any language, and debate any topic perfectly, perform any moves or plays or acting, from the mundane to the most intimate of behaviors at superhuman levels of ridiculous perfection.

What this means is that giving control, which need not actually even feel like giving control("because the neural interface could enact activity in the brain areas that give the sensation of  free choice, making it feel as if one is doing the choosing"), means one is the best at any game, sport, art or activity that one's physical body allows.  And with training, it would allow peak body to have peak performance and control.

Nervous about a speech?  One would not have to fret, engage of such would ensure the speech goes perfectly smooth barring physical failure of the body or external events.  Want interesting casual conversation tailored to the audience or person you're speaking with?  It can be done.

The attainment of optimal behavior would be quite ideal, especially if it requires no effort.
