Neuralink and the Brain's Magical Future...or...Elon Musk is building a wizard hat for the brain and why.

Sun Apr 23, 2017 2:56 pm

The latest WaitButWhy article, Neuralink and the Brain's Magical Future, talks about the brain and why Elon Musk has started another new company focused on developing brain-machine interfaces. It's incredibly cool, though incredibly long. I'd recommend reading the parts in chunks, but it's very cool and I'd like to talk about the fears of AI and the evolution of human communication and merging with technology.

Basically, Elon Musk is building a wizard hat for the brain and you should read why.

Finally, I expect my full dive virtual reality system by 2030. Thanks.

Then I'd like to be able to back up my brain by 2050, ideally with a continuous streaming copy so the moment an accident occurs my brain can be copied into a cloned copy of my body and I can get back to gaming.
