I wonder if there is a self consistent way to desire having your mind digitally uploaded into a computer, while detesting the idea of listening to the commands of the earring (and conditioning it to have all of my unconcious thoughts and desires). I guess I just discovered a bit of cognitive dissonance I didn't know I had.

mind upload is closer to the version in the comments, with gem learning to emulate brain and then brain gets removed

the difference is in targetted influence from outside aimed at changing you for its own goals and final form

consider the "accelerated version" of this earpiece - where you just get whackked with dose of heroine (making you "perpetually happy") and then taking over your body

I'll still be able to take my advice from Math.random()
