I think this is a very cool idea. You seem intelligent and your post was very thoughtfully arranged and well written. Although I think people on this sub (including me) will be very skeptical of your ideas, you should not listen to the haters (including me) and 1000% keep pursuing them. That’s how all great ideas happen. But, in the spirit of science - which requires brutal “I don’t care about your feelings” skepticism - here are my criticisms. My background is in org+biochem and these days I do algorithms and data science for biotech. So that’s my perspective.

Criticisms:

1.  If we already have the ability, it isn’t evolution. Evolution is a process that takes place over many generations in response to selection pressure. Also, evolution itself implies a biological (what you call organic) origin, so you don’t need to specify its organic. It’s literally just semantics, but “organic evolution” is not the term you are looking for. Try “increase in brain computational power”.

2. Our brainpower isn’t the limit to communicating with computers. The limit to how fast you can type is your fingers, not your brain. Bandwidth typically defines communication speed - so when Musk talks about improving brain-computer bandwidth he means the speed at which we communicate with a computer (nueralink), not the speed at which we think. Two different ideas.

3. Just because you felt like your consciousness had changed doesn’t mean it actually did. Biology tells us the whole “you only use x% of your brain” is complete nonsense. History tells us that people have been trying to prove they can enter a  superior state of mind for a very long time, but none have ever succeeded. Despite people of all kinds being convinced they can, none have ever been able to prove it. Kind of like a lot of people are 100% convinced of God or ghosts or psychics, but none have ever been able to yield a shred of proof.
