Brain implants

If it were technically possible and safe, would you enhance your brain with electronic implants?

Some possibilities:

  • A clock, so you would always know what time it is without having to carry a watch, and never oversleep again
  • A calendar, so you always know what you have planned for any particular day and time
  • A calculator, so you could instantly do mental arithmetic on numbers many digits long
  • A computer, so you could perform complex calculations just by thinking about it, and amuse yourself when bored by playing games in your head
  • An internet connection, so you can instantly look up anything, send a message or check your email
  • A borg-style "hive mind" implant so you can participate in shared consciousness with anyone else who has a compatible implant
