Elon Musk says Neuralink tech will allow users to stream music directly into their brains

If not Elon Musk, someone, some company will get to that ... Scary, if you ask me. From there to cyborgs... I don't think this far-fetched at all.

Peter F Hamilton's "The Void" series has augmented humans. For those born into it, it will be normal.

Sometimes Science Fiction is the precursor to reality.... "The Borg are cybernetic organisms linked in a hive mind called "the Collective". The Borg co-opt the technology and knowledge of other alien species to the Collective through the process of "assimilation": forcibly transforming individual beings into "drones" by injecting nanoprobes into their bodies and surgically augmenting them with cybernetic components. The Borg's ultimate goal is achieving perfection"

can I upgrade the cables?

No but there might be firmware updates. Just avoid the beta versions.

I have a signed, limited edition hardcover of Hamilton's "The Temporal void". The others, alas, just in softcover.
