Cyborg AI is a term for a future edge AI linked to a single person. It will be a combination of the AI agents and assistants that exist today. It will have a sliding scale of loyalty between its person and the person’s governing authority. For example, a Chinese citizen may find their cyborg AI reports small infractions which reduce their social credit score, whereas an American citizen’s AI may only report them for crimes that threaten lives.
From a person’s conception to beyond their death, a cyborg AI has a duty to them.
It starts as a sort of third guardian, easing the digital responsibilities of the mother and father for their child. It grows into an educator and a kind of secondary conscience. With adulthood, a person blends with their personal AI, becoming something like a cyborg from classic fiction. From a third parent to a third hemisphere, it evolves its service. As human health wans, it becomes a caregiver and final guardian. After death, it honors the person’s life and offers a viewing and maybe advice to those still living. In this way, cyborg AI becomes the ultimate vessel for a person’s legacy data.
Laws, culture, and human nature will dance around boundaries, but progress towards this end has the momentum of an ocean’s tide.
Cyborg AI will exist.
