Becoming demigods

When I read Tim Urban’s post on Brain Machine Interfaces 9 years ago, it just blew my mind.

The idea that we are so limited in our communication because of what we use to communicate is so simple yet so powerful.

So using typing / audio / video / AR & VR and haptic feedback is the limiting factor. We cannot convey feelings or raw thoughts yet.

Elon’s Neuralink is solving exactly this issue, turning us into demigods sooner than we thought.

And this is so exciting and scary that it sometimes keeps me awake at night
