Inside the Race to Hack the Human Brain

quote [ Bryan Johnson's insanely ambitious dream to create a "neuroprosthesis," or a brain-computer interface, would allow humans to “coevolve” with artificial intelligence and even unlock the secrets of telepathy. ]

I'm fascinated by the tech, fascinated with the knowledge being gained, but I don't think I'll ever be okay with popping a neural lace in my head.

"$800 million that PayPal shelled out for Braintree, the online-­payment company Johnson started when he was 29 and sold when he was 36. And the $100 million he is investing into Kernel, the company he started to pursue this project. " "You're welcome." -Capitalism This technology which captivates your imagination right now was unironically brought to your directly through the humanitarian heart of someone you'd deride as "super-rich." Downmod your dissonance.
