Neuro-Link (Agent Steel Story Concept Overview)
The Neuro-Link in the Agent Steel universe isn't just a gadget — it's a groundbreaking prototype designed to merge human cognition with adaptive, autonomous technology.
Think of it as the next-generation evolution.
How It Works
Once activated, the Neuro-Link:
1. Connects directly to the user's neural pathways
Allowing real-time access to sensory input, reflex loops, and emotional response systems.
2. Uses adaptive AI to enhance decision-making
It predicts threats, calculates responses, and sometimes acts before the conscious mind reacts.
3. Upgrades the human body and mind over time
The longer the bond, the stronger the user becomes — physically and mentally.

Side Effects / Risks
The technology is not stable.
It wasn't designed for wide deployment — only for the right mind.
Risks include:
Identity blending (AI and host personality overlap)
Emotional suppression or instability
Future super-soldier programs
The eventual split between technology and humanity in later phases of CSU
