In this episode, Alex and Ethan return after a short hiatus to dive into one of the most fascinating new avenues of technology innovation: the brain-machine, or brain-computer, interface. This is a technology with truly transformative implications,  if lower profile than other emerging technologies like artificial intelligence. In this episode, the science of the technology being developed at Neuralink, an Elon Musk company, is explored and some of the social ramifications are discussed.

This episode primarily explores how brain-machine interfaces change the way humans act with each other. Later episodes will return to human-machine connections and explore the ways humans and machines interact and evolve together.
