[disclaimer: did not read the article , but hey welcome to HackerNews comments!] Small comment regarding augmented self via technologies: I received feedback from my colleagues that Obsidian [a famous note taking app] was overkill and a waste of time to fill, during all our endless meetings. Guess what? 3 years after I joined the company, my [bunch of notes, aka a] vault is probably more focused and insightful than 99% of the wikis, Google drives and spreadsheets my company struggles to govern. Plus I can find equally what was said yesterday, or the knowledge transfer of a now retired ex-colleague from 2023 whose knowledge is now crucial to our work. Ater realizing that my obsession for note-taking was more good than bad, my team will soon start a common Obsidian so we can collectively keep track and retrieve the information that flows in our corporate brains. We will see whether all that artificial content becomes a part of our minds or a parasite of it. [i vote the former]
