I get it, you want brain chip treats.
Don't expect people to cheer them on, especially if they're owned and operated by companies ran by
and/or
. Also, the heat death of the universe is inevitable too; what's your point about that?
I don't buy into your empty faith in exploitative techbro bullshit inevitably leading toward nicer and kinder things; some technological things can and do get worse over time, especially software, and I don't see how brain chips from the same techbros would be any less exploitative when capitalism requires growth mandates and that means more exploitative systems and more hostile practices over time.

Assuming it is both inevitable and will totally be nice to you and give you neat powers is escapist wishful thinking without material analysis.
You sound like a credulous NFT investor, complete with the "this is INEVITABLE" chanting and the "everyone will bow to this eventually and praise it" wishful thinking.
Be as passive-aggressive as you want, "buddy," but you're making unsubstantiated claims, trying to chant them into existence for your own personal need for brain chip treats, all while ignoring the downsides of the current economic system and consequent technological trends, especially enshittification.
You don't.
You keep saying "inevitable" like society has a "science bar" that builds up over time like a Civ game, where it's only positive upward changes.
Now you're trying concern trolling. It's weak Reddit shit. Stop that.
You first, "IT'S INEVITABLE, THE CHIP TREATS WILL BE GOOD AND YOU CAN'T STOP THEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEM" true believer.
And yours is not one of them.
More concern trolling and passive-aggressive smarm won't get you your chip treats any faster.
Or at all
