Cyborg

Currently we laugh at the possibilities of AI. Our biggest concern is college kids no longer writing their own papers. Got me thinking about AI for golfers, and other futuristic things.

One of our members had hip replacement surgery recently, said it gave him the ability to play golf again. He is an old man, but I suppose he is technically part cyborg thanks to the metal inside him. At what point will 18 year olds want a hip replacement. Not because they are ailing, but because a cyborg hip gives them more turn, more strength, more speed. Now to make the college team, everyone is getting medical procedures to speed up human body turn.

And what about the AI chip that can now be implanted in your brain. With this added, it reduces anxious feelings on holes with water, but it gets better. You are now able to calculate distance, there is a calibration for slope. The chip can sense pressure differences, air density. It knows your adrenaline levels, it gives you probabilities of execution. Once on the green, it can see slope percentages, understands grain tendency. It’s doing algorithms and you are seeing it’s calculation on your optical reader you had implanted.

Some of you might be reading this and saying “hell no”. That would take all the fun out of the game, and yet there is a huge cross section of our society buying the a la carte inventions that do this already. Wouldn’t it be easier to simply have all the gadgets consolidated and implanted in your brain. You laugh, but someday you will look back and say this crazy pro once said this would happen.
