I forget who first said it, From the water's perspective it's a pothole is perfectly shaped to hold it. It exactly contours to the shape of the water, so must have been created for that water.

Now, we know that this is a backwards way to look at things. So why do we look at the universe that way?

An idea I had once would be to transition from glorifying the hoarding of wealth to a sort of leaderboard of who gained the most this year, with very high taxes to keep people from hoarding.

But the dragons don't want their hoards to diminish, and see anything that prevents the rapid growth of the hoard as diminishing it. We need a modern St. George. Likely in the form of an empowered and fully staffed IRS.

Yeah, no.

Not with this technique.

To get every neuron you'd need a very invasive implant.

Hell, this technique can be ruined by just moving your head.

It also needs hours of training data, pre-selected training data. So while this is kind of cool, it's not mind reading, and it's not coherent thoughts.
