Ah, no need to be so pessimistic. I'd give it another decade or two.

It's been several centuries and yet the brain is still a big mystery for the humanity. I don't think 2 decades would be enough. I'm not saying that I'm against cool technologies, but such a progress is hard to imagine being done so "soon".

Technological progress follows an exponential curve, why would this be any different?

Just feels unimaginable. But it's interesting to see what the future will bring us.

I'm massively optimistic about the rate of tech development, I think we'll have some really world changing things in twenty years but I really cant see brain implanted AR being a thing for a long time

It won't stop people from trying all sort of shit even if we don't know how the human brain works.
