Given that humans use only 2% of their brain power, it's seems worthwhile to explore the other 98% prior to tinkering with technological advancements. Those can always be supplemental once human potential is explored to a greater degree.
My two cents.
Yes, exactly, and not only that but the % of the brain we use will be altered in the future. You see brain pathways change over time. Thinking itself changes, and so does the speed. The idea that we use only part of our brain is correct for right now but as we use more of it I suspect that the brain matter itself will be enhanced and developed. So even a hypothesis as to what using our full capacity would mean to us would be inaccurate since by then our brains will be dramatically altered.
