How advanced, or what types of advancement, would it take to convince you to get a cybernetic brain implant in the future?

-Substantially improves a major disability (blindness, paralysis, brain damage, etc)

-Boosts sensory abilities beyond normal (eyesight, hearing, etc).

-Boosts IQ or some other meaningful metric of intelligence and computation, thereby increasing your competitiveness in multiple fields. Becomes basically necessary for some fields due to many others doing it.

-Lets you enter VR with all five senses in a way that feels like 80-90% realistic but can be any environment/context. People make increasingly awe-inspiring virtual experiences/worlds, only accessible this way.

-Substantially increases the bandwidth with which you can interface with computers. Like, lets you download a ton of info quickly.

If we create immortality, we'll probably need technological enhancement of long term memory to make important memories last forever.

Other than that, I don't think we need any of this shit. I'd be smart as fuck if it weren't for all the brain damage. Digit is even smarter than me, imagine what she could do if the world was supportive instead of driving her crazy? If we can, let's try to let natural selection cook here.
