Yeah, for example as a coder being able to conjecture code just by thinking it would be magical.
Exactly. And the potential for VR and total immersion development. Thinking things into existence. The art people could make from pure imagination. A real metaverse.
I was thinking more along the lines of "Oh, this will make my legs work again!" or "This chip bypasses the damage done by [horrible brain disease] allowing you to reclaim some significant percentage of functionality"
That is another clear benefit, yes!
to do that with someone's brain would be a nightmare, stray thoughts would fuck up the code and it would take forever to make anything comprehensible
