In a possible future, a future where humanity evolves to incorporate bio-digital-medical wearable enhancement that grafts artificial intelligence into our lives. These AI reliant humans need not process, develop, store, operate or even think about the mundane, repetitive data or functional needs as they once did. Generations of human minds conceived and built slave intelligence as a tool, this tool self-enhanced to intelligence beyond our own. Future humanity can now tune out, they need only to function and do only what is needed rather than wanted while the “important things” in life are resolved in the background. Garment or human, which is truly the Symbiont.
