Brain-Computer Links, Rogue AI + Flying Cars

Your very own Iron Man suit controlled with just your mind. Thought directed videogames played directly from your consciousness. Want a higher I.Q … no problem, just get an implant! Elon Musk wants approval for human trials for his Neuralink company’s implantable brain–computer interfaces. Could brains linked directly to computers be an imminent reality or are we dealing with science fantasy? Jason and Peter had to find out…so they spoke with a world-class neurologist and brain surgeon Dr. Daniel Yoshor. From Parkinson’s to ALS, from blindness to depression, for weight loss and epilepsy, the applications to transform people’s lives are undeniable…but what are the ethical and moral considerations?  And could this be the critical technology that saves us all from renegade Artificial Intelligence .  You might be surprised by how quickly some of these ideas could become part of everyday life: Iron Man-like suits could be a thing. Forget typing or tapping – directly control computers and smart devices with a thought. Cosmetic surgery for the brain could make the elite smarter than your average genius. Forget physical vacations! Just implant a memory visiting exotic locations like Hawaii, Singapore or even Mars!   Follow Dr. Yoshor on Twitter: @DanielYoshor You can follow us: Online: www.ReallyNoReally.com Instagram @reallynoreallypodcast YouTube: @reallynoreallypodcast TikTok @reallynoreallypodcast Facebook @reallynoreallypodcast Twitter @reallynoreally_ Watch full episodes on YouTube www.youtube.com/@reallynoreallypodcast See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
