No its not. Not even close. I'm referring to AI, brain interfaces, etc. It needs to advance and people need to become more interested in researching stuttering, which I don't think has anything to do with acceptance as a management pathway to circle back to op. Let me make it simple. You sound like a person on a deserted island whose alone with a severed arm but is in denial because he feels that there's some way to restore his limb therefore he refuses to come to terms with the reality of the situation.   You just won't accept and adjust to the parameters.  Yes a helicopter might come and rescue you and perhaps when you get back to shore low and behold a titanium arm replacement is waiting for you, but that does NOT mean you don't accept the reality that you only have one functional arm right now while on the island to survive.  That's all that acceptance means. It's not a defeatist attitude. It's the opposite. It's how you get into the game versus being sidelined. I don't think this is an intelligent nor fruitful conversation. Just a lot of wishful thinking and delusion to be "fixed" tomorrow.   We're done.
