I just saw a video of an AI executive saying that people will connect their brains to the cloud so they can have 1,000 times more thoughts.

Neurotypical people. Please listen to me. I promise you, with all the ADHD in my body-

You really do not want 1,000 more thoughts.

You may think you do, but you extremely do not.

I used to self-medicate with alcohol for exactly this reason: decrease the number of thoughts at once so I could actually do and enjoy things!

You know, if they think having a bunch more thoughts and ideas on their team will help, they could just try actually employing ADHD people and giving us accommodations so we can stay in the jobs. I was terminated from a job back in 2022 because I struggled to meet the deliverables they first intended in the job description for my role as a researcher, but I brought in new contracts worth tens of thousands of dollars and did other types of thought-partner work that was way outside my description...which they did not value one bit.

They really do be saying the incomprehensible stupid and wild things to try to remain relevant.

I agree, they don't want that many thoughts per second, hour, or whatever metric the AI Chud was peddling.

I have to take medication to sleep because my brain is too active at night. During the day, I'm prone to daydreaming because of it (there's also the anxiety 😭).

These chuds need to wake the fuck up.

Sorry to say, but I would absolutely do this! Judging by the comments here, I'm one of the lucky ones who found a balance with intrusive thoughts and makes use of the noise in my head for everyday life. Yeah ok I have a million unfinished projects lying around, but man, if I could use that computing power when I'm hyper-focused on a subject..!

Nobody wants to smoke whatever that AI executive is on, when s/he claimed that AI will help people connect their brains to the cloud and increase their thoughts a thousand-fold. The guy needs to be in a padded cell, not running a business.

Since this AI executive seems addicted to science fiction, I suggest he rewatch what happens to Cate Blanchett's character at the end of Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull.
