This assumes we'll be somehow apart from the Sysop; consider the meaning of Jupiter Brain. Would one modality dock another's "pay"? I'm intimating throughout my posts that we will all likely become a part/become/merge with the Mind, and then we/I will mature and develop as 1.
Actually, conversely, consider:
- the Parliament of Mind model, describing the brain and mind as several hundred organs, incidentally housed together,
- the split-brain (commisurectomy) folks.
There may be more intracranial infighting now than would ever occur in a noodle so optimized.
