EXPONENTIAL CREATIVITY OR ENSLAVEMENT

                I don’t know if, even with a lot of practice and motivation, i could ever get back to the level of creativity and imagination i still had in my early and mid twenties.
                 Maybe I’ll have to wait to be in my fifties (or sixties) for the first truly efficient brain interfaces to come out. 

                              



                 Then, it will take longer for the Archas (linearly-archaic thinking people) and even when they would finally adopt it, since generally their creativity isn’t very high, it would take even longer for them to become really useful in tomorrow world's where only human creativity would be better than the AIs one. 
               


                   This would create a bigger gap between people. So not only wealthier people having access to brain implants would outgrow their intelligence and power a lot faster than the poorest people that couldn’t access it yet but soon after but also, among the developed countries, opened minded smart and creative folks would outgrow their mind possibilities even way faster than the folks with the same chip in their brains but with less creative juice and intelligence, even if pretty soon after the gap would finally shrink.






      What’s even more frightening is that, beside AIs becoming stronger, if they are still less smart (or still obedient enough) than humans when this happens, a small group of people, let’s say « the richest », would use their implant to develop better strategies to enslave the world and might finally succeed. 
             
                                

                  Their best course of action would then be to forbid and prevent such chips to be accessible by the masses in order to control them which would also be a huge risk (unless they also collaborate with their elite) since the Chinese population might get actually full access to this tech and at very low cost and the Western elite might not want a Chinese population way smarter and more powerful than a western one, right?

                                        
                
                   Would be quite a paradox to have folks from a dictatorship being totally freed when folks from pseudo-Democracies would end-up enslaved (well, we already are but that would be real enslavement then).
                   But this is without mentioning the A.Is which would end-up anyway taking control over humans as it would be very difficult to forbid or prevent their exponential growth (unless mind uploading occurs before or at the same time in which case we could actually make it (or at least our copy could make it)).
