Yes, I saw this, and I completely agree.  But this article is just talking about abstract “digital” communication.  With that, we won’t be able to directly experience what another mind is experiencing.  The best we will be able to do is interpret the “digital” information into duplicated physical qualities we can be directly aware of – then give us conscious access to that with some computational binding via another corpus callosum.

Whereas, if you had a neuro ponytail that could do computational binding between brains, like is portrayed in Avatar you could be directly aware of things outside your head.  This would enable you to feel what your partner is feeling, directly, just as directly as the corpus callosum enables the left hemisphere of your brain to be aware of the knowledge being representing in the right hemisphere.  When you are facing each other, together, you could both see what is in front, and behind you, through the other’s eyes, all integrated into one single truly "surround sight" phenomenal knowledge you could both be directly aware of.

And has anyone notice that such a neural ponytail, if achieved, could finally falsify (or verify?) skeptical theories like idealism and solipsism.  Just like our left hemisphere knows, undeniably, that the knowledge in the right hemisphere exists.
