This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Fortunately, noting on earth makes it currently possible, including neuralink.
N,N-DMT: "Am I a joke to you?"
You can be if you want, cutie!
I don't think anything could make this possible, unless it was possible for another device to take over the "thinking" processing.
Our brains can change how they experience time to process things faster, but they need to shut off a lot of the higher thought to do so (it can happen during life/death scenarios). And even then, the descriptions I've heard of that where there's a decent real time reference makes it sound like the thought speedup was only by a factor of less than 10, probably not more than 5.
And even with another device that could "think" for you even faster, I believe the closest it could really do is implant memories of having spent a large amount of time stuck in some device. Though it depends on the low level details of what conscious thought and existence actually are.

At the risk of being that guy; this is an appeal to an authority, and not a very good one at that.
In the article she expresses she's just philosophizing on hypothetical technologies.
It's really not that much different from thinking about episode ideas for Black Mirror.
