Connecting your Brain to GPT-4, a guide to achieving super human intelligence.
The concepts of Transhumanism and Singularity have been a source of fascination for me for many years. I wrote about it in the past and I believe we will achieve singularity in the next 20 years.
Just imagine my amazement when I found out that a YouTuber by the name of Fireship managed to connect his brain to Chat — GPT and give it prompts using its brainwaves!
In this article I wanted to spend some time and explore the range possibilities as well as some of the limitations in Fireship’s approach of connecting his brain to GPT-4.
First off though, I do recommend watching the video first.
How it works
Before we look into the possibilities and Limitations of this, let me briefly explain how the process works.
On Brainwaves & Neurosity
At the core of this phenomenon lies the human brain, a complex and remarkable organ that produces a variety of electrical signals with distinct characteristics. Our brainwaves shift and change in response to the demands of different tasks and activities.
- Delta waves (0.5–4 Hz)
During periods of restful sleep. - Alpha Waves (8–12Hz)
During waking hours and…
