I wonder if an AEGIS specializing in enhancing the mind's processing power is in the realm of possibility, and if that would grant any tangible benefit.

Yes and yes. Cross Gears that can use improved perception, faster thinking, parallel processing, or more can make use of it. Things that ricochet attacks, control drones, don't require one's body to attack, etc.

The ethical ramifications of loading up someone's brain with pure energy is something I'm just gonna sweep under the rug.
