The "hybrid mind" represents a futuristic model that merges the cognitive abilities of humans with the advanced information processing capabilities of machines, opening new horizons in education, work, and even creativity.<br /><br />By linking the human brain to intelligent systems through direct interfaces, it becomes possible to enhance memory, accelerate decision-making, and even control devices through thought alone.<br /><br />Projects like Neuralink aim to develop brain-implanted chips that allow humans to send and receive information directly, without sensory mediation.<br /><br />However, this integration raises ethical and societal questions: Who owns this technology? Will it lead to cognitive class disparities? Could it affect human identity and autonomy?<br /><br />The hybrid mind does not aim to replace the human mind, but rather to expand and enhance it—provided a balance is maintained between human control and technological autonomy.<br /><br />It is an exciting scientific promise, but one that requires great caution in its application to ensure it becomes a tool of empowerment, not a means of domination.<br /><br />Al-Mustaqbal University The first University in Iraq.
