I think it's the one thing available to us that can make sure we're still alive and useful after AGI really comes into existence.
Once real real AGI AI is here with access to robotucs, we will either be relegated to the status of pet or, judging on how badly we treat the world and eachother, culled to more manageable proportions or just plain exterminated. The only way for us to continue to exist would be a direct brain to computer interface that gives us access to the same brain power as AI by then will have
As samxary as that is, I think that for humanity it's the only way to survive. If done right through open source principles, it'll be a system you can control yourself and activate/deactivate on command, and as needed.

It'll only be possible to be a good thing if we fix humanity first, so yeah...
