So my main question for this topic is 'Is cognitive enhancement appropriate for people without neurological disorders?' But my brother told me about another interesting point against cognitive enhancement.
Cognitive enhancement also raises technological concerns for the future. Another form of cognitive enhancement is the power to connect the brain to a form of machine. You see people being able to control a TV with their minds, or moving an artificial arm or leg with brain power etc.
Some people fear that if research into cognitive enhancement continues, soon enough we will be able to connect our minds into computers and, as my brother says, brings the question of how much of our minds are computer and how much is human.
This document also talks about the danger of cognitive enhancement and how furthering technological development in this could possibly bring harm to the entire world.
Freaky, huh?
